Pros

One of the biggest CPG companies out there and the money maker for PepsiCo. Great training regiment and great team to work with. Having this on your resume is a huge bonus if looking into other CPG companies or in the grocery business in general. Tons of opportunities to move up in the company.

Cons

Not too employee friendly. Frito was once very competitive when it came to compensation and benefits. But with other companies raising their compensation and company benefits, it is not as appealing. Whether being a route sales driver or district manager, Frito employees have more responsibilities than their counterparts at other companies and are getting paid the same if not less than other companies. And with benefits disappearing every year, they are no longer a forefront in employee compensation. They have company values and try to be committed to the community but with the hours and odd times of the day they work, it is not possible. Numerous attempts to start a community group to get out and help the needy or raise money for causes has failed miserably. This is mainly due to upper management and their main focus on sales.

Pros

You can make decent living with the pay structure Company is extremely consistent with enforcing workplace safety guidelines and habits Decent benefits Recognizes leadership capability in front line employees and assist in developing said employees to advance into leadership roles Opportunity to work overtime

Cons

Workload is strenuous when you have to deal with many hot at the moment company metrics that upper management wants you to be at goal especially when they're are internal forces that hinders progression Do not expect a regular to 40hour workweek, especially during the summer months and holidays Better hiring needs to be line on the front line level Employee overturn can lead to chaos and dysfunction when they is not enough people to do the work and people are doing more than they can handle No real collaboration and effort from Sales and Operations to work together "As One" to be successful overall as a company, not as separate entities
