Pros

The People! That is the thing I hear constantly. It separates us from other companies. The people are so cool and great at what they do.

Cons

People are so passionate about their work that sometimes it takes away time from the personal side.

Pros

Frito Lay has allowed me so many great opportunities. This is a company where you have a real team atmosphere. We are very results oriented therefore we never talk about how well we did last week, but how we will meet our future challenges. Our leadership gives us clear guidance and we model our approach to the market based on that guidance. This enables us to be consistent but also allows for the opportunity to stand out. If you work for Frito Lay, you do not work for the money, but for the opportunities and development. If you can perform at Frito ou can make it anywhere.

Cons

The issue that most will bring up is work life balance. I feel that in my own experience it is hard to achieve at Frito Lay. I have seen positive changes in the last three years and hope to see improvements in the future. I would like to see HQ Leadership shift focus to Work life balance opportunities in the field as much of their efforts in the past have revolved around HQ positions. I also understand that work life balance starts with me, so I also must make a better effort to take the vacation or leave a few hours early.

Pros

Pepsi Bottling Group was a challenging, competitive and highly rewarding place to work. Many of the strongest minds operated the business, demanded action, intellect and accountability while enjoying the fun of working for a soda company.

Cons

A bit hierarchy driven with an inability to move people quickly through the ranks. Many long timers who were tremendous leaders still could not find a way to offer the long term benefits to folks who wanted success a bit faster than 20 years.
