Ready for a change

Over 10 years at this company and many different roles. I’ve never seen it so bad. I thought I might retire here, but I don’t think I can make it much longer. Anyone else feel like the leadership is taking the wrong turns? It bothers me to see Ram... — read more

Feeling uneasy at work

I haven't been happy at PepsiCo for a while. I switched roles recently, hoping for a change, but things haven't improved at all. The lack of leadership is striking. It's like no one is interested in building connections, including my manager. There's... — read more

S&T (Sh---y & Terrible)

Past 6 months have been horrible. Culture is toxic, days are getting longer and longer, and this “one S&T” reorg has been a dumpster fire and a half. We have people out here stretched so thin that they have to do a workload meant for 5 people and are... — read more

I always saw job at PepsiCo as a temporary gig

I’ve been here for less than two years now. I’m just waiting now for December layoffs, which I hear are coming, to see if I'm the lucky winner and I’ll be gone. This place is not where you want to stay too long.

Greek Bureaucracy

Athina single handedly turned PepsiCo into a Greek bureaucracy. In record time, and after a ludicrously short tenure, nothing that she has brought under S&T works anymore. She proclaims to be the queen of end to end processes. Have you seen any of... — read more

The only reason why I'm still here

The cr-ppy job market. That's it. The only thing that's keeping me at PepsiCo is the fact that there are so few available jobs and most of them are currently lowballing applicants because they know they can. Outside of that, nothing keeps me here. I... — read more
