I hope they will also clean out some of the Marketing people … you know, the dopes walking around in Dorito costumes and making stupid videos of products (that uhhh clearly aren’t working … have you seen the latest earnings)? Making weird cheetos fonts and thinking thats somehow gonna drive sales??? Custom hoodies galore??? Gallivanting around at the super bowl or the grammys or coachella … again, clearly zero ROI. Meanwhile frontline workers and people with multiple degrees and specialized experience are being laid off. Seems pretty lopsided on priorities to me.

Some of you need to go back to your wives and talk about the help you need. Imagine working as a 20 something and getting eye rped by one of these dochbags. Another reason to not come into the office. To avoid some of you literal freaks. And I'm saying that as a male.
Custom hoodies.

Maybe but keep the cute gals. They're the only reason to go into the office.
damn, doritos costume catching strays. if you don't think those 300 likes and 4 comments are keeping the business afloat, I don't know what to tell ya bud
I got laid off, so I have a reason to waste my time here. What aren’t you working Mr Frontline multiple degrees wonderman?
Guessing you got your multiple degrees PepU. Very impressive.
Yeah dude, we should just have the frontline make all the ads and marketing materials.
With your “multiple degrees” it should be easy.
frito-lay knows the only way to attract any new young consumer is by social media. seems like this has been their focus for a few years now and the budget they have on their teams just seems to go up. Personally i don't understand it, but probably because it wasn’t meant for me but for someone younger.
Dorito costumes?? Where can I get one??
Marketing folks have been hatcheted multiple times over the past decade…. Our marketing has reflected that … rudderless cr-p since
