Saw a recent post on Pepsi reddit where a Territory Manager calls out field sales merger likely happening by this summer which is part of the reason for Company Car removal for all field sales. Anyone hearing similar? Should Field Sales expect things... — read more

Unfairness of PepsiCo Employees
It really makes me mad that you have some PepsiCo employees who work really hard, get no recognition and/or they get laid off. Then you have those PepsiCo employees who are constantly on their cell phones, Facebook, etc. Get off your... — read more

every. single. year.
pepsico lays off every year. every. dang. year. at some point they’ll have to cut the overlaid matrix orgs — especially any group with “global” in the name. but this probably isn’t that year. there are still plenty of white-collar u.s. jobs that can... — read more
Remember when jobs were secure?
I miss when you could feel somewhat safe in your position. Layoffs were rare. Now it's constant. I just want that basic security back.
Admintest iCIMS test job
I see job posting by PepsiCo with a title “Admintest iCIMS test job”, and I do get a notification every time there is a new one. Does anyone know what these are?
You need to report h1b visa fraud if you see it
If you are still employed here, and not on a Visa, it's probably not for long. You can do something to stop or even reverse it though. Aggressively report any perceived visa abuse below, even if you're not 100% certain. The future of your career... — read more
A new strategy for work
I'm done going above and beyond. From now on I'm just doing exactly what's required and keeping a low profile. Putting in extra effort here has never been appreciated, so I'm stopping.
Dave D’s Town Hall
TSEP Town Hall. DD talking a lot about “right sizing” and assessing team’s workloads/team members allocated. Also mentioned as a piece of this year’s strategy- GCC 2.0 (global capability center)- where it improves the onboarding and training for ICC... — read more

Jan 2026 Hiring Freeze?
Is hiring for roles at the corporate office on some sort of a freeze? I was supposed to be a finalist for a position but am now being told the process is being paused. Any insight is greatly appreciated
BRICS new logo / PepsiCo new logo
Did the same design team work on these?
Ah yes, the offshore model. So efficient. So cheap.
Execution is offshore. Accountability is onshore. Answers are expected instantly — from US leaders — even when the work is “handled” elsewhere. So if leadership asks a question and you don’t know because the team is offshore? That’s your problem... — read more

Has anyone heard if they are taking away company cars? If so who does this affect? What levels?
What’s brewing in Data and AI?

Spring cuts/layoffs
This Would Make Sense. After Q1 2026 earnings announcement. I think the global corporate role renaming from fall 2025 will Result In OffShoring and/or duplicate role cuts. Very Specific S&T roles were grouped into More General Roles. Campus hires... — read more

Do you think they track us going to the office or not? What do you guys think/do?
Any updates?
Is there any chance we get a quiet week or two without nasty surprises?
Laid off in my 50s with no pension and no plan
I'm part of this middle-aged surplus they've created. I'm too young to retire and too old to feel like I can start over. The future I planned for my family (the security, the college funds, the stability) is gone. I feel like I've completely failed... — read more

5 states cutting soda from snap today
2026 looks to be another horrible year. 5 states removing soda from snap benefits, and more to come. Have you heard a plan to make that up, because I have not. No plan, no results, more layoffs.
2025 YTD Return of negative 1.84% while the market is positive 17% - Good Job Everyone !
It look a lot of Leadership, apathetic employees, meetings, PowerPoints, bad ideas and ineffective and incapable management to accomplish this ! # PEPPROUD
I plan on being lazier and more unproductive in 2026
I really thought that I would have gotten the ax by now, but nope, I'm still here. Guess I have to up my game in 2026 and do even less if that's possible.
PepsiCo's only plan is layoffs
When layoffs become the sole tool for every problem, it shows management has no real plan. It's a clear sign of failure and desperation. I've started my job search, and you should too. There's no future here.
Layoffs 2”26
11 posts in a row with nothing really about layoffs. I made thru 25. I know there’s stuff brewing for 26, but I’m not sure how it’s all going shake out. AI and automation are going to play a big role in change. Just not sure what that looks like.
Coworker trained her own replacement

Days in Office
Does everyone stick to the 3-4 days in office? Most people I’ve talked to do 2 days if anything - I think riding it out until more days become mandatory.
