Former Employee – worked at PepsiCo full-time for more than 10 years

Pros – Progressive Company that provides a multitude of opportunities for job growth. Learned more in the 10 years that I worked for them than all of the other companies I worked for combined.

Employee compensation and benefits were excellent.

Cons – Stock price and investor relations was more important to them than their employees. Every year the company reorganized and consolidated.

Advice to Senior Management – Align the divisions, instead of cutting jobs. My biggest competitors in the market place were the other divisions in the company.
