Pros

pension, matching 401k, high competitive pay, no union, easy work, easy to work your way up the system

Cons

hard to get in, you start part time and it takes about 2 years to get a full time job. the first 5 years includes a lot of overtime(which is really good money). but after you've been there for 5 years you can pretty much pick and choose if you want to work overtime.

Pros

There are some GREAT Employees at PepsiCo. . There are still some excellent people in management, last time I looked.

Cons

Eliminating American Jobs, Indian Outsourcing and H1B Visa (through Contract IT Vendors). The few remaining American Managers are fighting an uphill battle to keep this American-Built company working for America, while they expand in the world.

Pros

The best reason to work at Frito Lay is the pay and benefits.The best jobs are the ones that are furthest away from management. Most coworkers are genuinely nice people but are forever in fear of losing their jobs so if that means throwing you under the bus, so be it. All of the overtime that you could possibly want and even a lot that you do not want. Double time on your 7th day and triple time on holidays ( yet to see any "upper" management work ona holiday)

Cons

Hours suck. No work / life balance. You can never plan anything with your family or friends as your schedule can change hourly depending on how many of their stupid bags of chips they need..Have to start out as a packer and they work their butt off and get crapped on the most . Warehouse is awsome but very fast paced. Processing is the ideal job however, you need to wait until someone dies or retires to get into that
