Good Business, Great Talent...Poor People Leaders

Pros

PepsiCo is an accomplished organization with high caliber people. Compensation is above average and business performance is consistent. There are lots of opportunities to grow given good results.

Cons

There is very much an up or out attitude as you progress to executive levels. It's a somewhat unforgiving organization. If you get sideways with leaders you should leave because the organization memory is long-tested. At Fritolay there was a strong culture and good values. However, that has slowly eroded. It's now more like PepsiCo that is mostly characterized by talented people that are poor people leaders. Great leaders tend to leave. Work-Life balance is a big challenge. Indra Nooyi has made PepsiCo a pulpit for her personal values. It's hurt the business at times and alienated many inside and outside the organization. She takes no accountability for her actions and failures. She appears to not care about anyone but herself.

Pros

Great pay Holiday pay Raises They have nice outings for employees You get free Pepsi merchandise Overtime is available Good work out Teaches you good networking skills This is definitely a great company to work for it all depends what facility you work for and who are your supervisors. But even that does not take away from PepsiCo as a whole. The job really is not that hard if your use to doing labor intensive jobs.

Cons

Not guaranteed off time. No work/personal life balance Merchandisers get treated with little respect by sales reps, and store mangers. Unrealistic productivity times Favoritism at the facility I worked out of, if the managers like you personally they would give you smaller stores to work and allow you to have a normal work schedule so you can have an outside life.
