Pros

PepsiCo is a solid company that provides stable employment. You will work with a variety of people. The company is constantly innovating to stay competitive in the market place.

Cons

I have worked for Frito Lay for 10 years. In the last three years I have taken a cut in pay each year due to route re engineering. There are the early mornings and long days, but that comes with the position. It seems as though the company does not value there front line workers as much as they did.

Pros

Even though you will work a lot of hours, you can pretty much be lazy and get by, as long as you don't have safety incidents or let unsaleables get out of control DSLs are either too lazy or too busy to be on your case about things.

Cons

With few a exceptions (not all routes are created equal) if you want to make money you will be working an insane amount of hours, so is it really worth it? You are expected to bring product into stores to make sales goals whether it's needed or not. So the better you can lie to people,the better you will do. ZERO concern for work-life balance. Big pay cuts slowly rolling out company wide with the elimination of commission pay.

Pros

Decent money, great products. Higher tenure guys are rewarded with first choice picking routes and vacations.

Cons

Decent money, great products. Corporate PepsiCo/frito lay keeps cutting the pay of their frontline employees. Performance pay is coming to my location and the moral of the entire sales team is the lowest I've seen in 20 years. You get penalized on your paycheck for not working 50+ hours. Ive haven't even thought of leaving this company since day one, but now I think about it daily. They have no care about the lives of there employees, but will shell out multi millions in sponsorship and advertising with no second thought. Indra needs to be canned or Frito Lay needs to leave PepsiCo. This company is a shell of what it used to be. All the speaking with truth and candor has gone out the door. We need a union, unfortunately we are too overworked to put it together.
