Looks like it might be over after all. Anybody knows if yesterday was it?

So many good people have been wronged by the company this week. So many families on one income and young children are wondering what's next. I would love to see all of my colleagues and friends that "survive" band together and find new jobs because... — read more 

Reading your posts, the pattern is exactly the same as it was for us. Shock, anger, then trying to find hope in thinking another company will value you or will want you. Well, if any of you think you can just take your skills elsewhere, like another... — read more 

I've bought my last Lay's no matter how much I might like them! I refuse to support the company that treats its oldest and most loyal employees like trash. My mother spent more than two decades with the company and for what? She talked it up and... — read more 

Is it just me or is it eerily quiet at the office today? It's like people know more is coming and are afraid to start talking to each other. Isn't it sad what PepsiCo did to us? Even if there are no more layoffs today people's spirits have been... — read more 

I’d like to offer a supportive word of solace for those suffering this week. In my personal experience, leaving PEP and never looking back was the best thing for myself and my family. No company is perfect, but the threatening HR atmosphere and lack... — read more 

From what I was hearing by the end of working hours, we are far from done with this. Layoffs will most likely continue today and tomorrow. In my opinion, it would have been ten times easier on everybody if they finished this in one go. Prolonging it... — read more 

It’s horrible that people lost their jobs today. I know lots of them were good employees and gave a lot to this company. Loyalty is not a word that should exist in corporate America. I feel for every one of you. I was laid off in my 1st job before... — read more 

With the day just starting for the Europe region, the business now waits to see how the axe falls on this above average performing sector. Although the R&D machine has certainly grown out of control and Mehmood and Indra appear to be addressing this... — read more 

They drive the strategy and make 10x the salary? Did they get affected???

Does this mean you get the identical retirement pay you would received at 55? Do you get the retiree medical plan?

This is why we can't have nice things.

Are demotions occurring at PepsiCo this week or is it just layoff?

With so much talent booted today, especially from the mgmt and R&D stand point, Pepsi will have hard time going forward. I just do not see how the company will be able to turn things around - it surely feels like things are not getting any better -... — read more

Rumor is that Gatorade business is moving from Chicago to NY Can anyone from Gatorade confirm ?

If so, what are the criteria to get a pension bridge?

Up front disclosure, yes I was laid off today and my family is absolutely devastated. But Indra saying they were only laying off less than 1% is manipulation. The reality is that PepsiCo is laying off a staggering 10% of corporate jobs (i.e. HQs in... — read more 

Just curious to see who you guys think will get the bonus payout Al Carey mentioned today? Is it just to those who make and distribute product? What about customer service, MEM, etc?

Could the layoffs and 4th quarter income losses be related to Hillary losing and the executives needing counselors to just go on with their lives? Or, was it because of people like me declaring to never buy another Pepsi product?

not sure about other locations but the ones who were cut here needed to go a long time ago. i know a lot of people are upset, but in my opinion this was a good move. how do you expect a company to survive without cutting its dead weight? some people... — read more

I am appalled with what folks are discussing here – there is a lot of confidential PepsiCo information here. This information is proprietary to PepsiCo, henceforth it should not be discussed in a public forum like this. Discussing layoffs in public... — read more 

It looks like age was the main determining factor in these layoffs. Oh, I am sure there were just enough 20+ and 30+ employees to avoid age discrimination suit, but on the whole, this looks like a cleansing of the old guard. Really sad to see the... — read more
