Pros

Decent Pay if you are a college graduate with experience in management with great benefits. Pepsico owns Frito Lay so lots of opportunities for growth. Established Billion Dollar Company. Company is here to stay...

Cons

Horrible training... horrible management... horrible environment .... horrible morale... 12-18 hours consistent shifts from 12am-4pm .... your personal life will suffer... lack of sleep so huge health hazard for many reasons... job is dangerous physically as well. With all those reasons, extremely high turnover which means Sales District Leaders are forced to pick up the slack and do their Route Sales Reps job because they are constantly calling in sick especially during the holidays and corporate doesn’t know how to fix this problem. The numbers for Las Vegas is great but the product sells themselves. The culture is the worst I’ve ever seen and would NEVER recommend anyone who wants work / life balance to ever work for Frito Lay as a Route Sales Rep or Sales District Leader. Run!!!!!!

Pros

Pay is ok and great benefits.

Cons

No work life balance. Held accountable for more and more and way too much micro managing lately. Routes are uneven some heavy and some baby routes. Routes run 7 days a week while other vendors dont. You work every holiday except Christmas unless a holiday is on your day off. Plus you work every weekend you work unless your one of the lucky ones. And if something happens in your personal life you have to deal with it after working long hours too much of a pain to call in. They love to say you will be held accountable as its almost a threat.
