Pluspunten

It's a great place to build up your resume. There is a some opportunity for growth, perhaps if someone is leaving a higher position and you can fill the role or if there is a business need. There is a gym and plenty of activities on campus during the workday for those who dont need to be at their phones or laptops 24/7. PepsiCo even celebrates those who join culture groups and volunteer during work hours. You can even have a flexible schedule and work from home a few days a week.

Minpunten

PepsiCo promotes that they celebrate hard working employees but the truth is that not all positions at PepsiCo are "fun" or "rewarding." You may be putting in a 70 hour work week and working on the weekends and receive a gift card reward which amounts to around $25, but when the annual compensation discussions come around, everyone is treated exactly the same, even if the company does well or does not do well. You will go through multiple levels of reviews and processes in order to get sign off from the top of the company. You can be the person who goes above and beyond and stays late on a Friday evening in the summer and still not win any PepsiCo awards because all of the awards are for the sales and marketing teams.

Pluspunten

Worked for PepsiCo for 10 years across four locations in Pennsylvania, Delaware, and Florida. Gained experience in multiple sales and operational roles while supporting account growth, merchandising, and customer relationships. Florida locations were especially well-operated and efficient. PepsiCo provided competitive pay, solid benefits through Keystone, and a good vacation package compared to competitors in the beverage industry. The company also offered strong sales incentive programs, earning rewards such as Orlando Magic floor seats, Pro Bowl tickets, Apple Watches, and Yeti cups for exceeding performance goals and driving sales results.

Minpunten

While PepsiCo promotes internal growth opportunities, many promotions and leadership opportunities appeared to favor college internship hires over long-term internal employees. In some cases, newer college-based management pushed corporate initiatives without fully understanding local market realities or account volume trends. For example, innovation products were sometimes forced into low-volume accounts where sell-through was unrealistic. Operationally, certain delivery processes could be improved, particularly with Tropicana products being stored in coolers on trucks for extended periods, which could impact product quality and increase waste. Work-life balance could also be challenging, as sales representatives commonly worked 50–60 hour weeks. Expectations from corporate leadership were often unrealistic, especially when customer representatives and drivers were expected to fully stock stores while servicing 15+ accounts per day. Experiences could also vary depending on whether locations were union or non-union operated.
