Pros

- Benefits and pay are great - Work from home - Design is simple, do not need advanced creative skills (could be a positive or negative)

Cons

- Competitive team. Every person makes a design and they are put against each other (on my team at least- there are many teams that have different dynamics) - Stealing from team members is encouraged, doesn't matter who came up with the idea- just who has the best version. - No leadership, just high expectations and judgement (on my team) - Design work is very boring and safe, but we are asked to do creative work that won't get used. The safest, more predictable option is always chosen. - The projects can always be boiled down to "make the logo bigger" or don't distract from the current look - No onboarding process or use of the file management system. Have to ask who has certain files or logos and ask people individually as you need things- but there is a file management system that everything could be on, it just isn't used properly.

Pros

Great benefits, PTO, and job security

Cons

You’ll have to train yourself on almost everything. Managers try to keep you in one position forever if they don’t want you to move bc the policy is if you want to move to a different position you have to notify your current manager. You’ll get a 2% raise no matter how you performed in the year. They never give more, which is a slap in the face. You’ll do the job of 5 people combined and they’ll refuse to pay you for it. I could say more, but please if you work here, only work for Gatorade and Frito Lay Sectors.

Toxic culture, poor management

Pros

- Good pay - A few brilliant and kind people

Cons

- Toxic culture full of bullies who are enabled by coward management - It's all about the sales team, there have been multiple complaints about how they treat their colleagues but bit's all brushed under the rug - White boy club: they have a few brown people for the show but all the ones in power and being promoted are white males. The sales guys brag about playing golf on the weekends with management (I'm not kidding)! - Sexist workplace. Expect to be asked to take note during meetings and to organise meetings by male colleagues. Even if you don't report to them and you're not an assistant. Don't expect any support from management or HR when you flag it. - Infantilising environment where the flexibility is only for certain levels in practise and where you have little ownership. - Management team is as inspiring and charismatic as a rusted nail. - People literally nominate and vote for themselves at awards. - No company is perfect but Pepsi is by far the most disappointing one I was ever given to work for. It's an old school company with old practises trying to pretend it's progressive.
