Thread regarding PepsiCo Inc. (Pepsi) layoffs

I got the memo from Ram…

I got the memo.
I showed up.

I noticed HQ here in NY is still a ghost town.
I’m thinking we must have laid off the entire HR department because they are nowhere to be found.

I might think the same thing about finance, but there were so few to begin with I know better, they were already “insourced” to Mexico and India, so whoever shows up, is just a survivor.

But at least the global marketing team showed up. Must be nice to spend all that money on F1 sponsorships and a trip to Cannes.

The vacant spaces in Sales is fine since they are out and in the field.

But there is always hope- At $129/share, we have tons of opportunity to see that how even lower.

Yep, they hate US American workers.

The building is empty because they are laying off most US employees, especially NY, and transitioning those roles to Mexico & India. Part of Athina's S&T 'revenue' strategy - LOL

Agree, purchase location in NY is a horrible spot for a global HQ. Inaccessible for the majority of talent that lives in NY and NJ. Major mistake made when the long term land deal was signed pre Covid

Whoever decided that NY location was a good place to have an HQ, I hope you're having the life you deserve.

If you think the merchandiser is the problem, you're missing the problem. That employee spends two hours a day in his car, unpaid, in the hardest role in the company to fill, probably at low-$20s an hour, and we keep piling complexity on him. That's why the stock isn't moving. As a former GM, I ran a business at 25%+ margin by solving these situations locally. Sector and HQ are chasing 15. That should be embarrassing.

Ha- true HR is nowhere to be found. And they get paid more per level.

@be Reading comprehension isn't your thing. Must be management. I took a job near my house because I was promised the route by the office. Six months in, I'm told I have to drive 50 miles each way before my day even starts. Anyone who thinks this is ok is clearly delusional to why people quit. Good news is I have an interview with Amazon thats 3 miles away and pays $6 more an hour.

I agree with the sentiment, but why isn't it an enforceable policy?

What are they going to do if do not show up? Every team has been downsized and the remaining resources are stretched to the bone. Less resources, more responsibilities, and no bump in pay.

But hey, it’s smiles week - time to put the fake smile on and show face for these A$$holes that also are never on site? F*ck that! By law - it’s not an enforceable policy.

@a9

So, you have the job that you applied for, knowing what was involved, and you decided the best thing to do was to come here and whine about it?

No wonder you are permanently assigned to manual labor...

@a9 it is nice. Instead of posting on this site you should be studying together your GED.

Must be nice to have an office job. My shift starts at 1 AM, and I’ve got 20 pallets to handle tonight. I’m driving to my first stop now because I got bumped off the route by the office just two minutes from where I live. Instead, I’m stuck driving 50 miles one way on my own dime, staying in debt to pay for a car and a apartment, only to repeat it all again. F off!
