Why are so many people leaving Chilled?
It seems like many good leaders have left the organization in the last couple months. What’s the main issue? It doesn’t seem like executive leadership is interested in retaining talent.
The real reason Indra stepped down:
She wanted time to catch up with all the posts on thelayoff.com.
Indra Nooyi Steps Down

Mid year reviews - another confirmation

Trop dsd
Is trop dsd ending...pepsi is getting trop naked products so are they going to coexist with pepsi trying to steal trop dsd business?
Reliable sources confirm
That Pepsi is going to start closing plants and ship the products to a centralized warehouse. Then the products will be distributed from a state of the art warehouse. Corporate greed at its best!
No layoffs for drivers
Pepsi can not keep drivers bc the job is not worth the pay. 12-15 hours a day, handle 10,000-13,000 lbs of product a day 2 to 3 Times a day. No breaks, no lunches bc you would be out that much longer. Management and the company do not give a crap... — read more

Mike Spanos almost confirmed what everybody was fearing. After the massacre in R&D, it is time for other functions to face music now and it is mentioned that this will be brutal. No firm dates as yet, but very likely in early August.
No severance when moving location to another state?
How does this company get away with not offering a severance if your job is moved to another state?? Seen this mentioned several times, wondering if there is somebody who can confirm if this is true or false from experience? I'm no fan of PepsiCo... — read more

Heard this from a colleague, can it be true?
Why does PepsiCo let executives rot??????
The company is filled with career directors who sit in the same positions for double digit years. Year in and year out, the company faces the same problems and these people cannot fix them. This is the definition of insanity. A company filled with... — read more
...just move on...
Why not simply seek employment elsewhere? Like any corporation PepsiCo owes you nothing and they certainly don't care about you. It's a business that is looking out for the business. You are just a number in the cog. Best to stop whining... — read more
AMENA
AMENAs B2+population needs to be cut dramatically, and focus resources on actual top line growth & innovation. PepsiCo has become a financial company just living for the EPS and focusing on dividends. All the focus is on profit and not growth. What a... — read more
Made the decision
I finally made the decision to leave. I'm really glad i did, PepsiCo has turned into a joke. Nepotism and b---s--- politics ran rampant. Frankly, I think that anybody who can should pack their bags right now and leave as well, before they are dragged... — read more
Tomorrow- 7/9
The last round of layoffs in Winston Salem happened on 2/13 after the Q4 Forum. Seems reasonable to think there might layoffs happening tomorrow after the Q2 Forum??

Transportation puppets
They follow the VP like scolded dogs. As long as you agree with the boss and celebrate the many accomplishments he takes credit for then you will be a valued employee.
HR implosion?
Several leaders resigned. One gave 24 your notice. What makes the organization world class? I hear the words but never see the results but unhappy employees scared for their jobs. HR will ALWAYS run PepsiCo

AMENA to transform shortly?
Rumors say it is just around the corner. A severe restructuring, a new operating model coupled with major layoffs, be ready.

Shameful
PepsiCo just keeps sinking lower than I ever thought possible. It's not enough that best employees are shown the door or treated like crap in hopes that they'll leave on their own. No, to add salt to injury now we are all expected to train our own... — read more
