Topics regarding layoffs at PepsiCo Inc. (Pepsi)

Huge workloads

I have more work to do than ever. Stress is also greater than ever. How much has your workload increased lately? I certainly do twice as much work compared to last year.

Maybe they want us to leave voluntarily

I can't help but feel that all this pressure on employees, which in my opinion is greater than ever, is for the purpose of making as many of us as possible leave voluntarily. Perhaps someone will say it doesn't make much sense, but that's my... — read more 

GBS Savings?

Are we really saving money by sending American jobs overseas?

Everyone can do better

PepsiCo manages by fear because it knows that many here think they can’t find a better job. That is not correct. The only problem is that most people start looking for new opportunities only when they hear some rumors about possible cuts. Why is... — read more 

Restructure

Hearing a restructure. They are centralizing admin tasks again. Getting data about what each one does. Cuts coming.

Workplace stress statistics

I mean the serious stress which a lot of employees here are exposed to every day. I believe that if some statistics were made on how many PepsiCo employees suffered from serious stress-related illnesses, the data would be very worrying. I wish I... — read more 

Instead of a package, I got even more stress

Honestly, I was hoping to get the package and leave. I haven’t gotten the package yet, but I’ve gotten more work than ever. I am overloaded and under so much stress that it's become unbearable and next week I'm planning to quit. This seems to be a... — read more 

Big red mark?

Why do so many people here write that PepsiCo is a big red mark on resume?

401k

I am panicking on how I’m loosing money on my 401k. I have a feeling recession will be next and I will lose it all. Should I withdraw now but pay that huge penalty but at least have enough to pay off my house?

Searching for opportunities

I don’t believe there are many who aren’t trying to get out of here. However, I have been trying for a long time and it's starting to demoralize me. I don't know if others who found new jobs much faster are just luckier or if the problem is... — read more 

This is not the way to solve problems

Cheaper workforce will not solve the problems that PepsiCo has, but the leadership persistently thinks that a cheaper workforce is the solution for everything. Of course they will continue to hire cheaper labor as long as the job gets done, but, is... — read more 

Severance is temporary happiness

I have long thought that severance is the best way out. I longed for severance pay to finally get out of this disorganized place and I've noticed that many want the same. But isn't severance just temporary happiness? Perhaps it's wiser not to wait... — read more 

We need better leadership

Let's get real here. Until the entire leadership team is replaced with executives who know what they're doing PepsiCo will remain doomed. The incompetent bunch we have right now is the root of all of our problems. I wonder what else they need to do... — read more 

GMAS and Leads

What is the time frame to axe the GMAS and Leads? Will they offer admin roles to them?

More closings and layoffs

The more things change, the more they stay the same. PepsiCo closing Barrington research facility, laying off 78 employees and transferring more than 130... — read more 

Overworked

After the layoffs, admin support moving to GBS, and not backfilling a colleague, I am so overworked. I recently attended a conference and discovered I have 2-3 times the workload as people in other companies. I have complained about my workload... — read more 

In case this wasn't posted here before

A Japanese company and a North American company decided to have a canoe race on the St. Lawrence River. Both teams practiced long and hard to reach their peak performance before the race. On the big day, the Japanese won by a mile. The North... — read more

I would like to ask to be considered for a layoff

Indeed, I would love to be laid off. Besides, I think there are a lot of people in Pepsico who want the same thing? I'm too tired and too sick of this place, so it would be great to get paid to leave. Unfortunately, PepsiCo seems to be putting... — read more

any rumors out there?

Commodities and external pressures are out of control. Impossible to grow enough to solve for life. Pepsi is smart. They're going to react. Anyone hearing anything?

Career growth

It's devastating that I'm still in the same role I was in when I first started working here. I tried to make some career progress in a variety of ways. I worked hard, I did my best, all in vain. Has anyone here managed to make a significant career... — read more 

No stability

I try not to worry in advance but I'm always thinking of other options. I don't believe there will be any layoffs for a while. Still, I don’t think my job is too secure either. I have seen many times what happened to people who thought they would not... — read more 

Give PepsiCo what it deserves

For me, PepsiCo is the place where I get paid for putting in an average effort. That's it. It's not my family, it's not my owner, and it's not the type of employer that deserves my full attention. I'm here until I can find something better. Everybody... — read more

Pepsico always easily finds an excuse for layoffs

I hope we don't hear new excuse for new layoffs any time soon. Some colleagues are already spreading rumors that there are layoffs around the corner. I don’t believe in rumors, but it often happens to come true. Does anyone have any insights about... — read more 

No surprises

The only people who advance in the company are the corporate wonks who spout the company phrases. They can be completely oblivious to the area they are supposed to "lead" and their motivations are fueled by not getting into to trouble. PepsiCo's... — read more 

Time to Boycott

It’s starting , time for these supposedly woke socially conscious companies to start walking their woke talk , otherwise they are seriously damaging their brand. PepsiCo is on the list. Their silence speaks... — read more 

I'm so close to quitting

If our manager continues to bully people and HR continues to do nothing about it, I'll walk away. No notice, I just won't show up one day. Considering what I do and that there's nobody who can replace me on short notice, it'll be felt, trust me. I'm... — read more 

Very physically demanding

I'm more busy than ever. I'm getting more and more to work to do and now it has become very physically demanding. I won't be able to sustain this pace for long but I need a job. Do you think there is any point in trying to talk openly about it with... — read more
