Pros
Pay is reasonable, but you will earn every penny.
Cons
No family time,no life except for the job. On call 24/7,no holidays. No set schedule,start work one day at noon,next day at midnight and any time in between! Very physically demanding job unloading trailers every day. The company done away with it's pension plan for new hires. Started delivering to grocery stores directly with 53 foot trailers,instead of using route sales people driving vans and straight trucks. They call the new system of delivery with tractor-trailers to the stores-GES. They have had an extreme amount of driver turnover,since Frito-Lay started this GES program, which was unheard of in the prior 50+ years of company history. The thing is, Frito-Lay has turned an excellent truck driving job into a less than average crappy truck driving job with less and less benefits, with more headaches and work to accomplish the same results.I really hate saying things like this about a company that I sunk 20 years of my life into,but something happened around the year 2007 that changed Frito-Lay and from what I have heard, it's not getting better.
