Pros

It is a company where dedicated individuals can grow and develop within the company. There are numerous opportunities available to build a career if you show initiative.

Cons

Well working in the warehouse can be a huge negative at times. There is consistent overtime, but the bad part is that there really isn't a set time that you leave work. You are pretty much there until all work is done. Its a demanding business.

Pros

If you can stick it out until you get a route, the money can be pretty decent depending on what type of route it is. Not all routes are created equal. One would thing sales reps delivering to large grocery stores and super-centers would be paid the most because of the exposure and the importance of keeping these large accounts filled, but you would be wrong, the best paid reps have the the small gas stations, convience stores, and liquor stores. The health insurance is decent, but it is expensive. However, the vision program is very good, or so I have been told by the sales people at the eye-glass store.

Cons

The hours can be brutal, getting up at 3:00am and many times putting in 10+ hours a day. There are very few routes that run Mon-Fri so be prepared to work weekends. The split work-week is the worst, off Wed and Sat. You never get a weekend off, and if a holiday falls on a Monday, expect management to pressure you into working that day, and do not expect to get comped for it. They will offer an extra day's base pay. They attempt to treat holidays as if they were just another work day, but do not expect to see any managment there on a holiday, they are out enjoying the time off with their family. There are no personal days, and very few sick days, and if you take a sick day, management will pressure you work still make all your service calls.

Pros

PepsiCo is a constantly evolving work environment. Large organization with positions within domestic or international areas. There are numerous opportunities to gain experience and many driven and highly competent individuals to work with. Employees are treated with respect and professionalism.

Cons

PepsiCo's divisions still tend to maintain their independence and culture. Pepsico tends to be a very fast paced organization that can burn you out, although there has been an effort to create a work life balance... the tendency still is more words work then life. PepsiCo also tends to "clean house" every year or so.
