Pros

Great work/life balance depending on the team. Do your research. Ask around. Okay pay, but promotions can take 2+ yrs for many. Once they lock you in, they can only give you set percentage increases so negotiate well at the start. Good vacation overall Good benefits but room for improvement Great brand experience opps and portfolio building Small in-house teams, but good people for the most part. Again, can be really hit or miss depending on what brand you end up on and who your manager is

Cons

Little to no room for raise or promo negotiation once you’re on. Have seen lots of great people leave for this reason. Wide range of salaries within each level, which is really dirty but hey it’s corporate America. HR is not on your side. No clear path to promotion for design and the DC has been around for about 10 years now. Figure it out. You’re on your own. Your future is in the hands of your manager and your marketing team so they better believe in you or you’re kind of screwed Lots of politics. Know who matters to work work your way up There’s a standard amount of vacation, but the policy is outdated. Make it unlimited like everyone else and give us a health and wellness stipend instead of reward points with limited options on how to redeem Low female leadership and lack of diversity, but willingness to change

Toxic

Pros

Money. The one and only pro.

Cons

A toxic work environment with awful management and completely disorganised. ‘Silent assain’ is always watching, it can only be compared to a hellhole. Salts foreman is a big problem in the area. Company culture, voicing opinions fearlessly and acting with integrity all mean nothing to PepsiCo. The bullying on the production floor by both operators and management is second to none. Physically and emotionally bullied in my time there. Was threatened by managers if I went to HR it would go against me getting a permanent job. Bully never faced any consequences. In fact they get permanent job. Acting with integrity means being honest and doing the right thing, there is nothing being done right in the plant and most certainly nothing being done honestly. If bullying is starting from the top down what else can you expect from operators?
