Why do I have to watch a recent college grad fast-track PepsiCo re-leveling all while I’ve exceeded my objectives for the twelve years I’ve worked here, yet there’s no budget for me to get the raise I was “promised” for the last five years? Make it make sense.

As a former campus hire, I thought moving up was like golf: put in the reps, improve your game, and earn your score. Turns out some people start the round with a 28 handicap and the cart keys.
Please, please, please, if you are not happy just go elsewhere! Why stay at a company you are not proud to work for?
The TSL role pulled in almost all the campus hires and sped up their burnout across the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic. Many are moving to lateral positions and quickly leaving the company due to the intense workload.
There are campus hires that jump from new hire to Directors in 7-8 years. HR is the worst culprit and the reason they are flawed.
@e7 Ha, ha! Campus hires are rapidly promoted. (Or maybe that was before your time.)
I worked with guys like you.
Nobody likes working with a whiny b!tch
Not sure what you’re seeing. Campus Hires do not jump 4-5 levels in a couple years. They don’t even get a new role until after the first year.
To me you sound like you have no idea what you’re talking about. Maybe work harder for that promotion.
@am the only thing I hate more than working here is a snitch
Hello Mr. Obvious
@a1 “Senior Director in five years”
So are the campus hire steps: intern to asst analyst or team leader to assoc analyst or assoc leader to sr analyst or sr leader to asst mgr to assoc mgr to director to sr director in 5??? Years? 7-8 promotions in 5 years?
The biggest regret people have on their deathbed is they didn’t treat this life like more of a game.
Most campuses I’ve come across do one or two things each month that could get any of us terminated. Take them out for a few drinks, note what they say, and report them along with their leaders. Play the game and stop griping about the rules!
I have observed the same. I call it age discrimination, especially when the campus hire can’t deliver. They do not have the experience. You probably noticed they do not wait 18 months to get their next promotion. They jump 4-5 levels within a couple years. It has been stated here that their managers receive financial incentives. It’s all about the money.
I've seen this movie before. Recruit the hungry college grad, move them to a city nobody picked on purpose, promise they'll be a Senior Director in five years, and hope they run through enough walls along the way. Meanwhile, the people who've been delivering results for a decade are still hearing about budget constraints.
