How are the career development opportunities at Frito-Lay?

Good pay, free tools, great learning opportunity

Poor management, you get blamed for everything even if it's you doing your job. Management will make you feel like your job is being threatened based off rumors instead of facts. The whole place is basically duct taped and glued together yet expected to operate like new

Health benefits, decent weekly pay, no management on your back as long as you’re doing your job, independent, mileage reimbursement

Long work hours, no recognition for hard work done, management lacks communication, no work life balance, wear and tear on personal vehicle

Flexible time Salary better than somewhere else but still not the best

No career growth, as the company would rather choose to bring someone from outside than give an opportunity to a current employee to move up They want too much from you Stressful work , especially for newcomers No appreciation at all, can’t even organize a proper Christmas party for their employees

You work for the prestigious PepsiCo on notable Frito-Lay brands. The pay and benefits are good.

Exactly what the title says. PFUS Marketing is siloed by what team you are on. Although we are all marketing, working on the same brands, and trying to drive the same business - there is so much separation between teams that it affects overall culture, development, and our business results. If you are not on a brand team - you don’t matter. They preach about promotions from within and career growth but that is only true for some. Groups and distribution lists are created for marketing but only certain teams (brand) are allowed in. If you want to be promoted to other marketing roles, you’re only prioritized if you are already on a brand team. The department is so stuck on only giving opportunities to people that already have them that many ideas are not executable, not forward thinking, and reactive instead of proactive. As a whole PFUS Marketing is great for brand marketing and only brand marketing. That is loud and clear for those of us in the room but never actually allowed a seat at the table.
