Pros

As a merchandiser you primarily work alone, and can take your lunch break whenever and wherever you wish. The job itself is easy - just put chips on a shelf, make sure all your displays are filled and rotate the product. You can meet some really interesting and hard-working folks Good benefits, regular schedule, minimal overtime iphone with unlimited business and personal use

Cons

You don't get paid the hourly rate while driving between stores. You will need to drive your own car - tracking and reporting your mileage, tolls, and hours is overly complex and time-consuming. In locations with lots of snow and road salt, the mileage supplement will not be sufficient to cover repairs and maintenance on your vehicle. You will almost always feel rushed. You will sometimes need to deal with stores that are unhappy about things you have no control over

Pros

none none none none none

Cons

After 20 years, I retired. Now, two years later I still have nightmares, literally, about Frito-Lay. That's why I'm typing this review at 2AM: I couldn't sleep, having another nightmare about Frito-Lay. Do yourself a favor: if you're employed by FL, leave NOW. If you're reading this while considering FL: run...fast...and don't look back.

Pros

Independent work, benefits, if your single and have no life this can work for you, just have thick skin when things go wrong you will have to deal with it on your own.

Cons

Long hours bad training no responsibility from management,lots of lies told to you in hiring process and training. Hr is not your advocate.
