SOPs and Policy
Why is it so hard to find these things at PepsiCo? Is there way to get them without asking managers? Seems nobody is doing anything the right way.

PepsiCo Fall From Grace?
Why is the stock market setting records but PepsiCo stock is falling? Why is there lack of faith in the company while there is a huge surge of confidence in the markets ? What am I missing ?
Conditions imposed to obtain severance
What’s worse, PepsiCo makes you sign a full release of any wrongdoings and Human Rights violations as a condition to get your severance. A great company ???? It is corrupt to the core ! It’s amazing how they protect themselves in every way. They... — read more
