Thread regarding PepsiCo Inc. (Pepsi) layoffs

Kirk Tanner to Wendy's

Do any of you have any thoughts? Pretty quiet on here after a PBNA CEO left the company. I'm on the FLNA side and as a 35-year route sales professional he didn't have any friends on the chips side. Burned the furniture every year of his career and left each job in ruin was what people I know always said about him.

KT to sign a lifetime agreement with Wendy’s and Coca Cola!

That won’t last very long if he shuts down supply, freezes all hiring, loads up stores with product and doesn’t plan for the next year.

You know like he did in 2023 to pad his pay. Kirk will run this company in the ground.
Expect $9 French fries to a Wendy’s near you!

Highly doubtful he can just go over there and switch the beverage pour. They likely have a contract in place that has to be fulfilled first.

KT threw out all the Pepsi 12 packs sitting out in his garage before the news of his departure went public.

Unless his golden parachute package included some urging for him to convert Wendy's, don't expect them to pour Pepsi any time soon.

Do you think Wendy's will start pouring Pepsi products now that KT is at the helm? Or does blue blood only run as deep as the paycheck?

If Indra was still here he would have exited a long time ago. He was a nice guy made a lot of bad choices thou like buying out Rockstar to sell Bang and then blowing that deal losing us millions in sales. Always behind the scenes cutting while onstage saying he is going to have the PBNA team deliver 5 star service. He left with no blood left in the turnip to squeeze so layoffs will be a must. Look for Wendy’s to have round hamburgers soon as he will surely cut the corners to save some money.
