Shameful

It is unbelievable how dishonest the leadership is and it is left totally unchecked. All the stories from the Directors that they didn’t know who was being terminated until it happened. Turns out that was all BS. Directors had to sign off on... — read more

Horrible employer

I have worked for several companies over my 24-year-long career but I have never worked at one where the longer I was there the less appreciated I was - until I joined PepsiCo. It's like the longer you're here, the pressure on your managers to get... — read more

Disenchanted with the company

There was a time when I was proud to tell anyone who would listen that I work here. I grew up on their products and it’s all you would see in my home. I actually believed we were important as individuals and we were crucial to its success. I don’t... — read more

Who is ready for a VLO package?

I am ready and willing to be one of the first if the company offers it. I’ve been here too many years and it’s time for me to move on. Let someone else carry the torch as they say. With the way things have been going at the company, I’m sure there... — read more

Open and Honest Feedback

The shear amount of dysfunction at PepsiCo as a whole is quite disturbing. Whether it is discrimination against women, ageism, ethnicity, position/level as well as intimidation, bullying and most frightening; the conduct of senior level executives... — read more

Ageism

Am I the only one that sees the blatant age discrimination? I have interviewed for over 10 roles this year alone with no success. When I go back to check the org chart, the job was given to someone half my age. Why post experience or degree when... — read more 

Merry Christmas or bah humbug?

The holiday season is approaching fast and while I am hoping we are all safe from any layoffs, the rumor mill is churning with them. It would be devastating for me (and I assume any other employee) to be laid off right now. So I'm keeping my fingers... — read more

PepsiCo Speak Up Line

Interesting to see how many posts on here speak to PepsiCo leadership violating confidentiality promise of the Speak Up Line. I was also directly reprimanded and terminated shortly after a submission to the Speak Up Line. Really raises questions... — read more 

Sooner than later

Per the rumor mill, it looks like the layoff will happen before the typical February timeframe. I've been hearing that they want people off the books before the end of the year. What have you heard?

Will PBNA offer voluntary retirement?

Pro tips for accomplished career?

PepsiCo has worked on the buddy system for as long as I can remember. Little clubs get formed and they fast track up the ladder. They also mysteriously move around just before major reorgs to avoid being cut. System has never been fair and... — read more

Promotions

When's the last time anybody here's been promoted at PepsiCo? It seems to me that the only way to get ahead is to be a good a–kisser or related to somebody. Am i wrong? Are there promotions taking place based on merit anywhere in the company or is... — read more 

Future of Naked Juice

Now that Odwalla is gone sales may go up but usually Pepsi products sell less than Coca Cola products which means if they are losing money we are losing a lot more money.

Other things matter too!

When will the ELT realize that putting profits above all else is what's dooming this company? Yes, profits are extremely important, but so are employees. Without them, the company doesn't exist. And if employees are not at least content, the company... — read more

HEARING CHATTER THAT PBNA NEXT

Heard chatter in office today that Pepsi is likely to roll out voluntary buyouts to PBNA salaired employees that qualify as early as next week.

Writing on the Wall - New Year = New Layoffs

Following on the post about Voluntary Retirement Buyouts, if you haven't already put the dots together there is going to be a BIG layoff coming soon. VBRs that are happening now are meant to lessen the impact of a massive reorg. Based on how big the... — read more

PEOPLE PLANNING

Hearing more head cuts coming across food service. Time to clean house apparently!!!

More jobs going to india

Announcements happening today. Second wave of sending more PBC administrative jobs to India. Great timing when we’re in a pandemic with lots of unemployment. Greedy, greedy, greedy.

GEO REPS

Is Pepsi going to cut more food service heads by making restaurant reps and rec and retail reps geo reps across the country? I hate to admit that it makes sense

LAYOFFS HAPPENNING IN FOOD SERVICE

Getting word that at least 12 food service reps and managers were laid off yesterday fraom the Cincinatti / Dayton Ohio region. Anyone have more info. Is this the beginning of what is to happen nationwide?

Packages and Benefits

If you get a package, do health benefits only run to end of month or your entire severance time?

New layoffs

Legacy Rockstar employees are now being laid off. Still uncertain if severance packages are included or not. Seems like a consolidation of the two Company's is going to happen, despite what the initial press releases indicated.

Capped at 26 weeks?

Does anyone know if your package is capped at 26 weeks, even if you have been with the company longer than 13 years?

Mother Teresa

PepsiCo pretends to be the Mother Teresa of the Corporate world. This BLM issue that has exploded is just another marketing gimmick for them

The Pepsi we all knew is gone.

I was lucky and I left on my own last year. Still have at least 20 more years until retirement and wait for a package that might never come was not an option any more. Plus all the stress to know if there will be layoffs next week was taking a... — read more

Management doesn't care about you.

Management doesn't care about you. All they care about is numbers. Work you to death. They sent out to area that you don't know. You must deliver all your stops.

More of the same

So apparently we are to have one more layoff/restructuring/whatever but it is necessary because of the coronavirus. Does anybody buy that c-ap? No, we don't need to have more people cut. What we need is new management that will know how to run... — read more
