I remember five years ago when I started working here, I was so excited. I couldn't believe I landed a position at PepsiCo, I thought I was so lucky. It took me about a year to become completely disillusioned and accept this place for what it truly is: a heartless corporation that doesn't give a damn about its employees and will sc--w them over every single time in the name of profit. I can't believe how naive I was before then.

Literally 1 day. I started the day after a massive lay off and got a lot of blank stares as I introduced myself to people. I’m sure they were wondering how I was hired right as many of their friends were let go. It made me question whether or not I had a big mistake in leaving a job I loved to come to PepsiCo. It only took a few weeks to figure out what a toxic, chaotic, mess I had walked into. It has only gotten worse over time.
A year sounds about right...
