PFNA employees have until November 6 to apply for special voluntary retirement program. Will PBNA offer the same after the November 6th window closes? Thoughts?

Apparently Equal Opportunity only applies to certain groups....really nothing new here ! https://www.hrdive.com/news/frito-lay-refused-seventh-day-adventist-saturdays-off-violation/585771/

PepsiCo has worked on the buddy system for as long as I can remember. Little clubs get formed and they fast track up the ladder. They also mysteriously move around just before major reorgs to avoid being cut. System has never been fair and... —  read more 

When's the last time anybody here's been promoted at PepsiCo? It seems to me that the only way to get ahead is to be a good a–kisser or related to somebody. Am i wrong? Are there promotions taking place based on merit anywhere in the company or is... —  read more 

Now that Odwalla is gone sales may go up but usually Pepsi products sell less than Coca Cola products which means if they are losing money we are losing a lot more money.

When will the ELT realize that putting profits above all else is what's dooming this company? Yes, profits are extremely important, but so are employees. Without them, the company doesn't exist. And if employees are not at least content, the company... —  read more 

Heard chatter in office today that Pepsi is likely to roll out voluntary buyouts to PBNA salaired employees that qualify as early as next week.

Following on the post about Voluntary Retirement Buyouts, if you haven't already put the dots together there is going to be a BIG layoff coming soon. VBRs that are happening now are meant to lessen the impact of a massive reorg. Based on how big the... —  read more 

Soon PFNA will announce a voluntary retirement program. This appears to be the first signal of more layoffs to come.

If you talk to your manager, they'll say you're safe. But in reality, India can do any of our jobs.

Somebody mentioned we'd have a continuation of last week's layoff but so far nothing.

Heard from a very reliable source inside Plano HQ. HR got hit today. Approximately 60% outsourced to where else....India.

Pepsi soon to follow to remain competitive

Hearing more head cuts coming across food service. Time to clean house apparently!!!

Announcements happening today. Second wave of sending more PBC administrative jobs to India. Great timing when we’re in a pandemic with lots of unemployment. Greedy, greedy, greedy.

Is Pepsi going to cut more food service heads by making restaurant reps and rec and retail reps geo reps across the country? I hate to admit that it makes sense

Getting word that at least 12 food service reps and managers were laid off yesterday fraom the Cincinatti / Dayton Ohio region. Anyone have more info. Is this the beginning of what is to happen nationwide?

If you get a package, do health benefits only run to end of month or your entire severance time?

Legacy Rockstar employees are now being laid off. Still uncertain if severance packages are included or not. Seems like a consolidation of the two Company's is going to happen, despite what the initial press releases indicated.

Does anyone know if your package is capped at 26 weeks, even if you have been with the company longer than 13 years?

PepsiCo pretends to be the Mother Teresa of the Corporate world. This BLM issue that has exploded is just another marketing gimmick for them

I was lucky and I left on my own last year. Still have at least 20 more years until retirement and wait for a package that might never come was not an option any more. Plus all the stress to know if there will be layoffs next week was taking a... —  read more

Management doesn't care about you. All they care about is numbers. Work you to death. They sent out to area that you don't know. You must deliver all your stops.

So apparently we are to have one more layoff/restructuring/whatever but it is necessary because of the coronavirus. Does anybody buy that c-ap? No, we don't need to have more people cut. What we need is new management that will know how to run... —  read more 

PepsiCo has no choice but to restructure due to the COVID-19 crisis. I expect announcements will be made in the next two weeks.

If you put in a retirement date but still have vacation do you have to take it or will they pay you for the time. I keep getting different answers from manager and HR

Why would they demote someone two levels? They k–led it in the interview and couldn't do the job? Do they keep their salary?

You were able to download this list on mypepsico.com a few years ago. The pay scale from low to max ranges for all the levels. HR removed it. I have asked HR for a copy and claim they dont have it anymore. Do you know where I can get my hands on... —  read more
