Pros
Frito Lay has allowed me so many great opportunities. This is a company where you have a real team atmosphere. We are very results oriented therefore we never talk about how well we did last week, but how we will meet our future challenges. Our leadership gives us clear guidance and we model our approach to the market based on that guidance. This enables us to be consistent but also allows for the opportunity to stand out. If you work for Frito Lay, you do not work for the money, but for the opportunities and development. If you can perform at Frito ou can make it anywhere.
Cons
The issue that most will bring up is work life balance. I feel that in my own experience it is hard to achieve at Frito Lay. I have seen positive changes in the last three years and hope to see improvements in the future. I would like to see HQ Leadership shift focus to Work life balance opportunities in the field as much of their efforts in the past have revolved around HQ positions. I also understand that work life balance starts with me, so I also must make a better effort to take the vacation or leave a few hours early.
