Pros

The pay and benefits are great...but...

Cons

Hours are long, managers are either corporate yes men who only care about their own career opportunities or detached from market trends. The attitude is push for sales as hard as you can and blame the sales rep on the route for the stales the route produces. You can only really sell enough product to meet demand before it will eventually go out of date. Simple Supply and Demand economics does not compute with this company! The attitude is more displays and more inventory equals more sales which is completely false thinking. Route re-engineering is also Frito-Lay's way of giving their employees pay cuts without calling it such...which means longer hours while getting used to the new route for less money overall. 99% of these negative comments on glassdoor are actually true with this company, which is sad to say as an employee who has been loyal to them for over 10 years now!

Pros

Pay is okay but you are treated like a dog and get no respect from the company.

Cons

Work most weekends! Will not back their employees! If a store has a complaint, they will side with the store everytime!

Pros

Great Brands Good brand name to have on resume If you can survive here, you can survive anywhere

Cons

Weak strategic leadership. Leaders have ridden the macro economic growth curve in India and now that times are tough, find themselves out of their depth. Culture celebrates presentations over actual execution, short term wins over long term sustainability Chaos and lack of strategic clarity is lauded as passion and entrepreneurial spirit. Promotions are based on personal likes and dislikes, there is no objective and performance based criteria for promotions.
