Pros

Quality product, service & passionate people. Great Fortune 100 - sales/Leadership training & foundation for future opportunities. Diverse company with ample advancement opportunity.

Cons

Compensation-below average. Benefits-good but costly. Work/life balance-very poor. Advancement opportunity but not based on performance. Politicals & perceptions shape your career...not your reality & performance.

I learned quite a lot about the foodservice business, but I and my peers where an extremely stressed out group.

Business Outlook

Pros

Excellent sales training, people were given true responsibility for account base and not very much micro-management. Work/life balance was discussed as a montra, but the workload basically overpowered any balance. However, very flexible with work from home schedule.

Cons

You must find a sponsor at the HQ. No employee without sponsorship at the HQ gets very far relative to promotions.

Business Outlook

Pros

If you want more then job but a career Frito-Lay offers oppertunties for all. Must have your own goals and be able to go in the direction, forcasts and goals the team is going. Not afraid to ask for advice or help and be able to help other team members. Pay and comp. is high compared to like industries. (Retired after 30 years and have no regrets)

Cons

Must not be afraid of hard work or long hours. If you do not enjoy working with people or as a team Frito-Lay would not be for you. Must learn to balance work with family. (sometimes its best to shut it down and go home.)
