Outstanding company with great people but too focused on diversity

Business Outlook

Pros

Compensation and professional growth are very good. People are challenged early in their career and given chances to succeed or fail. If you are bright, capable, team oriented and willing to work long hours, you can succeed. If you are a diverse candidate, you will have a better chance than most to make it there as preference is given to those people.

Cons

Long hours and high pressure to deliver results. PepsiCo is very results oriented and if you aren't capable of leading change and taking risks, this company isn't the place for you.

Darwinian culture... Sink or swim

Business Outlook

Pros

Well-regarded company, strong brands, "can do" culture. Big budget give you plenty of resources. More data than you know what to do with.

Cons

Poor work-life balance, little opportunity for movement between Divisions, highly matrixed/functionalized. PepsiCo is also a "deck" culture. You'll spend tremendous amounts of time writing presentations that are only used internally. Also, the bottler franchisee model is exhausting and largely dysfunctional. Last, there are very few Senior Managers at PepsiCo that are inspirational. They're very good operators, but there's a real lack of strong mentors and coaching. International tends to be better than North America.
