Pros

Great brands, Great People, High Energy environment. PBG empowers managers to make decisions while allowing for mistakes. Fellow employees truly become teammates as customer demands continue to create challenges and local teams must pull together to deliver results with limited resources. Diversity programs enhance the work experience and campus recruits are given immediate opportunities to perform key roles and tasks.

Cons

Priorities seem to change daily. Demands on personnel being pushed to the limit. Employees are being asked to do much more with less and morale is flagging. Top management talks tough about tackling customer challenges, but backs down as soon as pressed by a key customer. Hours are long and abiltiy to balance work/life is difficult.

Pros

PBG has a fun culture. Their brands are well known and they focus on execution. The company is very competitive being in a n industry with two key competitors so if that fits your pesonality it is a great place to go. Additionally, there are always new products coming out from PepsiCo so you get to be on the cutting edge of new products and consumer trends and you get free samples as well!

Cons

The company believes in "punching cards" and so if you are on a fast track tot he top, you can be sidelined by having to do a certain function before you can move up. Also, they have very little regard for relocating employees.
