      PepsiCo UK & Ireland - A view from the Head Office

      Pros

      The culture at the UK HQ in Theale is friendly, fast-paced and fun. There is a big focus on performance, and a robust (if slightly complex) way of measuring it. Ad-hoc recognition and reward are regular occurances. There are some fantastic benefits, including what must be one of the last final salary pension schemes in the UK. They've had a big focus on flexible working in recent years which has paid off with quite dramatic results.

      Cons

      It's not a culture that will suit everyone. There is an extremely high quality bar, and the pace can be exhausting. The biggest and most pervasive problem is the IT infrastructure which is in major need of a revamp. It does the job, but it is disjointed and there is still a lot of things you would expect to be automated that are still done manually.

      Run The Other Way

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      The pay and benefits are very competitive. The company is a well known leader and seems to want to do the "right" thing.

      Cons

      You will not be recognized properly for your work. Nothing is ever good enough. Expect a lot of negative feedback and very little positive feedback, if any. Expectations are beyond high, to the point of being unrealistic or borderline unrealistic. You will be expected to go along with management direction and not question any of it. If you do, watch out. Don't express how you honestly feel or try to make suggestions for improvement, they won't be listened to. In fact, management will counter and try to make you believe there is something wrong with you personally and that is why you feel that way or are having "difficulty". There is no work/life balance. You will work extra days for no additional pay depending upon the route type. They will also take recent college graduates with no work experience from outside the company and put them on a management development track before they invest in their current employees with college degrees interested in promotional opportunities. Work is unchallenging mentally and very physical. It's all about the numbers, nothing else. You are not in control of your own route, management will force out product and displays.

      Work Hard, Play Less

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Fast paced company. Great resume builder. Nice place to start a career but you need to focus on getting out before 3 years.

      Cons

      No balance. All about what have you done for me lately. No long term outlook, only looking for short term gains. Poor senior executive leadership. They preach balance, but in the same sentence they add to your work load.
