Great caliber of talent - my peers push me on a daily basis. World class brands with cutting edge consumer engagement and customer management. Access to resources - financial, people, agency.

Cons

Big, matrixed company that makes it more complex to get things done. Experience through multiple specialized roles, so linear path to building well rounded experience.

Pros

Not many, it is a paycheck and a place to go to everyday. Co-workers are nice, understand that everyone is in the same boat with Frito.

Cons

VROT - how in the world do they figure it? Everyone has a different explanation and none make sense. Health insurance - they start taking out premiums more than a month before you are eligible and if you leave, it ends with no reimbursement of the non-existent insurance. Long days and chaos/confusion in the "bins". Loading a truck at the end of a 12 hour day with no real structure and order to a warehouse is awful. Managers or DSLs don't offer any help or explanations - you have a one with one every week, but nothing gets resolved. They want to put a check in the box and move up in the corporate world.
