Pros
- Work life balance: Frito give half-day Fridays during the summer and business travel for most jobs is relatively low. - Job stability: Frito is in a very stable industry and works hard to avoid lay-offs. - Dallas location: Dallas is a great place to work and live.
Cons
- Very political work environment: Politics often outweigh qualifications and job performance. - Lack of integrity: Information is often manipulated or "spun" to provide the most positive perception. - Arrogance and ignorance of those who have been at Frito their entire careers; Many at Frito think Frito is a world class organization but only because they have never worked at a world class organization like GE or P&G. - Little value put on experience from other companies
