Pros

Benefits are good. Freedom to wok alone. Training was very good was a week if comprehensive training. Personal trainer was very through and hard working.

Cons

They told me I would make a certain amount and when I got my check it was for a lot less. Was not happy. No leadership as far as groups goals. They have a sheet hanging on the wall with your numbers but no plan to hit those goals. Interview process was very bad , had to call many times to find out when I would be starting. Many negative people working ast this location.

Pros

If you want to learn about the industry, this is the place to be. It is amazing how complex and comprehensive this company is (from seed to shelf)!

Cons

Downsides = Long, long hours. It does not matter if you are in the field or in headquarters. Almost everyone I know is a "crack-berry" addict. It's almost like a cult... We can't shut it off!! But then again, Frito-Lay is known for hiring agressive over-achievers with Type-A personalities. Unfortunately, Gen-Y'ers are in for a rude awakening.

Pros

Career advancement, career oppportunities. Chance to work with really bright, talented leaders. Fast paced. Open to people with different backgrounds (diversity is real). Legacy talent (many folks who spent time at PEP are now at top jobs elsewhere --- the company spits out leaders left and right. Really innovative marketing as well as strong sales culture.

Cons

Location...at times desire to be IN NYC vs in Suburbia. Technology, unfortunately the investment in technology is lacking..but it goes with that industry (CPG). I think the investment will come in time. Base salaries are a bit low and bonus is held only at middle to senior levels but stock for all is amazing benefit/concept.
