Topics regarding layoffs at PepsiCo Inc. (Pepsi)

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

There is money for everything except employees

I might be wrong but it seems to me that PepsiCo has money for everything except employees. Do you agree? You don't have to be a great expert to understand that money is being spent in a bad way. Sometimes I get really upset when I see what the... — read more 

GBS- USA Level 2, GBS Level 6

My department was let go to GBS Mexico City last year. Most of the associates in my department were level 2 (the lowest level at Pepsi) yet the Mexico Team started as level 6. How is this possible?

Snoop Dog at the Super Bowl

Surely Pepsico could have found someone else to sponsor other than this low life criminal. How many times has he been arrested for dr-gs and g-ns ? His songs are all about violence. Now new allegations of ra-e and s-x trafficking. What is Pepsico... — read more 

To them employees just machines for doing things.

Without any doubt, they see us only as an expense. Employees are no longer valued, respected nor paid enough. Loyalty is no longer important to anyone, moreover, it is no longer desirable. I don’t know when everything changed. I’m not saying it was... — read more

Everything more valued than merit

When I see who is getting promoted, it is both frustrating and depressing. Why do I have a feeling that everything here plays a greater role than merit? Why wouldn’t PepsiCo finally start promoting people who actually deserve it? What does that... — read more

PepsiCo equals nothing but lip service!!

Isn't it amazing all that we do here is smoke and mirrors? We have all of this training by all of these activists to make sure we act right in the workplace and tattle on those who don't act right!! We have all of these pronouns on our emails, zoom... — read more

Diversity Quotas Trump Competency

Over the past year I've seen a significant shift in hiring and promotions, where qualified candidates with years of experience are overlooked in favor of diversity hires with no experience in the subject matter. I've seen glorified IT project... — read more

Is everyone ready for the Super Bowl? I hope all the stores within 25 miles are filled with PepsiCo products!

To leave is an economic necessity

I no longer have any doubts whether I should leave or not. I have to leave now. PepsiCo does not care at all about the purchasing power of its employees and whether some of them can still pay their bills with such high inflation. I am urgently... — read more

Do they want an employee or a robot?

I am worried that I might lose my job because lately I have been constantly criticized that I should do more, better, faster. From my point of view, the criticism is completely unfounded, because I doubt that anyone else in my position could be much... — read more

We obviously can't change anything here

People have to vent their frustrations somewhere, but in essence, can we really change anything by complaining? In the end, I just hope that our complaints will maybe help someone else make a decision whether to apply here or not.

I can't take it anymore

I have incomparably more work now than a year or two ago. They keep adding more to my plate and I’m facing a total burnout. I am looking for a new job and I hope to find it soon, because I will not be able to sustain this pace here for a long time... — read more

Promotion

I really can’t believe that hard work doesn’t pay off at all and that in the end only those who are favorites of their bosses are promoted. I don't want to believe that this is always the case, even though I haven't been able to get a promotion for a... — read more 

No layoffs coming anytime soon

Too many jobs to fill as it is. Not enough people want to put up with the grind. LG1+ roles don't have enough bodies to fill. Sad day for the suits. Huge talent void as older generation leaves.

401k Question

I was let go last year. My severance just terminated but I found a job outside PepsiCo immediately. Should I leave my 401k with Pepsi? Move it to my new company? Too young to cash it out.

I am becoming indifferent to the rumors of layoffs

I hear about cuts all the time so I have become indifferent to rumors that layoffs are around the corner because here everyone can be sure of only one thing - that no one's job is safe. The main question is how to be productive in such an... — read more

Half our team sent down the River

Last Friday half our team was told you are going to the new juice company. You no longer work for PepsiCo and you can’t apply for any jobs here for a year. Feeling Valued??? I think not.

Many are staying for severance

Out of many people I talked to, a sizable number is staying at PepsiCo only because they're hoping to be laid off. They want their severance instead of just walking out. I find it ironic that the company is so bad these days that employees are no... — read more 

No respect

PepsiCo seems to have lost any remaining respect for the people who do the actual work and we're now at the stage where the management has declared war on regular employees. They are laying off the best people, cutting benefits, refusing to give... — read more

They just don't know when enough is enough

At the beginning of the new year, I will prioritize looking for a new job. This doesn't make sense anymore. I get paid the same while actually doing work for 3 or even four people. They just don't stop adding more work to my plate and can't feel... — read more

Is it possible that a manager is afraid to manage?

We have a manager who is everything but the person who manages. Sometimes I think everything would work the same even without him. Given his previous experience, everyone is surprised that this person doesn’t manage much better. It dawned on me... — read more

Speak Up

Has anyone ever had success with the Speak Up hotline? Our warehouse is corrupt and the supervisors lie and cover for each other, so nothing gets resolved. I'm in Fort Smith.

PepsiCo Vaccine Mandate Question

How is PepsiCo dealing with employees in states with LAWS (apologies, but I don't want that overlooked) protecting them from mandates by means of allowing employees the option to vaccinate or test weekly, provide proof of antibodies, etc?

December Announcement?

Has anyone heard of any possible layoff announcements for December? This is the time of year for them to lay people off

Duck you and Duck Pepsico

Pepsico is run by wall street. You are run by pepsico. You either join it to improve the BRAND or to leech away at it’s revenue. Please leave if you’re the former and find what you’re good at. No judgement

There's a method to their madness

I often see people upset that PepsiCo is hiring soon after layoffs or even during a round of layoffs, but there's a good reason for that. They're not planning to keep any of those folks here long-term. They want to use them in the next restructuring... — read more

They can't keep anyone anymore

It is now very easy to guess whether a new employee will stay for a year or less. New hires on average I don’t think stay longer than that. Perhaps PepsiCo made a mistake with such a strategy, because I can understand that it is in their financial... — read more
