The Layoffs truth...!

What they are NOT telling you... The previous round of layoffs sent jobs to India, this round Mexico. The same jobs are available, but only in Mexico. In order to collect a well earned severance package, some who were termed must remain employed... — read more 

Valuable experience

PepsiCo drained my energy. All this time spent here I felt underpaid, overloaded and stressed out, but if nothing else, I hope that the experience here will help me get a better job. Did your experience here help you get a better opportunity... — read more

Executive Losses

Does anyone know if top tier execs were let go during this layoff? I see a lot of posts from impact jobs and departments, but nothing about the top earners. I worked for this poorly managed company for 20+ years before leaving. I've been through so... — read more

A company to avoid !

For more than 10 years now we have been decimated in IT approx every 2 years, with winter 2022 being a big one and this time affecting the whole business, they say they value people, their actions clearly say otherwise. It's turned the company from a... — read more

Worth it to stay in recruiting at Pepsi?

Recruiting for the company Pepsi currently is feels dishonest and “icky.” It’s impossible to paint the culture as the picture we’re expected to without straight up lying. I have another gig on the side— enough to stay afloat comfortably, but without... — read more

My morale is zero right now

I'm not laid off, so luckily, I have the luxury of looking for new opportunities while I still have a job. Perhaps this company thinks that the employees will now work harder than ever because of the pressure of the new cuts that some are already... — read more

Perhaps this was a much needed kick for most of us...

The experience of a person who was laid off earlier this year: Announcement was made March 8 and our last day was August 7, 2022. We had to train the Mexico replacements for 5 months if we wanted our package. We also had to sign a confidentiality... — read more

Totally demotivated

It's been clear to me for a while now that things can only get worse here. People are already talking about the next round. Cuts have become a constant and hard work is not valued here at all. So what's there to hope for and why make additional... — read more

Terrible damage

Some of the most capable and hard-working people were laid off. I am shocked because I think that no company that cares about its future cuts such employees. Instead they should be doing everything they can to retain them. I wonder if the... — read more

Too much work

I can't be the only one who knows their workload is about to double if not even triple after the dust settles on the latest layoffs. The work of my laid-off coworkers has to be done, and unless they hire replacements right away, I know those of us... — read more

Jump ship after these layoffs?

I seem to have survived, but I'm lacking motivation and it's hard for me to focus on work. I lost excellent colleagues, as well as the little remaining trust I had in the leadership. How to be productive after all this, when people are already... — read more

Coping with the emotional impact of being cut

I never thought that my job was guaranteed, however, the notice still surprised me very negatively because I was giving 120% of myself and I somehow thought that I would survive, that my efforts would be valued. It is difficult to deal with the... — read more

More work for the rest of us

The latest layoffs have exacerbated an already bad situation. Throughout the past several years, I keep seeing teams get smaller and the work remains the same. This is not a sustainable way of doing business. It's only a matter of time before most of... — read more

Are the most talented ones actually the target?

I was quite shocked when I found out that some people were impacted for whom I would never have thought could be a target, considering their skills and knowledge. It is impossible to know for sure, but it seems that the criteria for targets are... — read more

Don't expect any compassion!

After so many years of loyalty, investing huge efforts in this company, I am now laid off. I regret that I often put my work before my personal life and family. They don't care in the least whether you might lose your home, whether your children... — read more

Frito lay lay off

So we were told about our layoff through other employees not management. While we were laid off Human Resources said they couldn’t attend our meetings which seems totally wrong. Company preaches family but does the opposite.

PepsiCo is an Evil Company

PepsiCo is an evil, evil company. People give their lives and their best years and they just discard them like trash. Age discrimination at its finest and they get away with it. Someone should stop them.

How many are yet to be notified?

I have a feeling that the majority of those who are being let go were already notified yesterday, and only a small number is left for today. I know there's no way to get official numbers, but just from listening to people and reading posts that seems... — read more
