Pros

The job within itself was great.Training was easy if you're a fast learner. I would love to go back there. The pay is awesome.

Cons

Human Resources is the worst department at the plant I worked at. They have no clue as to what goes on in a warehouse. The profanity that is used on a daily basis. The men in the warehouse have no respect for women. When you're confronted by the men so many times after reporting to the managers and supervisors you have to take matters into your own hands. I was 6 months pregnant doing a lead position that I wasn't getting paid for and was approached by a man who said he would knock me out. No manager or supervisor on the floor just me and the men. I defended myself the best way I could and was reported like I initiated the argument. I was suspended then fired and told I was no rehirable because of the language I used. Appealed my termination thru the plant and higher Human Resources and didn't hear from the higher power. Do I think it was fair no I do not. I dedicated myself to a company who didn't even swing a bat for me when I really needed them to and they knew I had reported many complaints about being disrespected.

Pros

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.

Cons

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.
