Contractors Treated Very Poorly

Pros

Coworkers at similar level in company seem very welcoming and friendly. Campus is vast and their facilities are vast despite despite the lack of ability to provide a desk or cubicle.

Cons

Surprised that in such a large corporation that was not given proper equipment to properly carry out expected tasks and some areas of management spread so thin that they are unable to understand scope of work that is outside their own expertise. Politics very high and mostly negative in nature especially towards contract workers. People protective of their jobs since merger with Pepsico is suspect to the angry tone of many.

Pros

PepsiCo is a great place to work! The thing that makes it different than other companies is the PEOPLE. Very innovation driven and fast paced environment. The brands are well recognized and everyone has a connection to them. When at holiday parties and the subject of work comes up, people light up when you tell them who you work for because they are typically such a fan of one of the company's many products. They immediately know the company you work for. I have worked in the past for companies where it takes a few minutes to explain who you work for. Not fun... It is very entreprenuerial and sort of like working for a small company in a big corporation.

Cons

Innovation very often leads to change. PepsiCo is constantly adapting to meet the future needs of the business. This tranformation sometimes is foriegn to new people who look for things to always be the same in their job - day after day after day. Change is usually good, but if you are like Milton in the movie "Office Space" and do not welcome or adapt to needed change, then look elsewhere.

Work hard, play hard!

Pros

I love working for PepsiCo and the main reason for this is the people I work with. PepsiCo people in the UK have a great passion and belief in the business. I have never worked in such a positive or motivated organisation. At the end of the day, my role is results focussed but there is a great work life balance....... work hard, play hard! It is fast paced and constantly changing..... there is alwasys something new to involve and challenge me.

Cons

It is constantly challenging...... you met the bar and then the bar is moved. This is about making me better and developing me which is great but it would be nice to take breath on occasions!!
