I still show up, do what I have to, but the fire’s long gone. This place put it out years ago. I'm now just counting down the days and trying not to burn out before the finish line.

Can’t imagine doing 30 or 40 years with company as is today. Pepsi was part of our extended family, Christmas parties, summer picnics, and everybody knew one another. If it was like this when I started I wouldn’t be here today. Got so many years in now I’m stuck, but not for much longer. Hang in there and get what’s coming to you.
@dn if you talk to our managers that don’t do the actual work, they say everything is great and improving. If you talk to the frontline employees they say everything is falling apart and getting worse.
Speaking your opinion fearlessly has gone by the wayside. You will be branded as negative if you try to fix any issues.
Brain and brain, what is brain? 🧠
I’m on the other side now since I was hired by a rather large Pepsi customer… believe me when I tell you that customers are shaking their heads trying to figure out what happened to Pepsi …. every facet ie. touchpoint where a customer interacts with Pepsi is bad / maddening
@a3 you must be kidding picking on the veterans. Pepsi was tearing it up in the 90s.we had a real advertisement team that knew how to make a commercial. Stock went from $15 pBC to what it was today. Best thing of all we had a frontline that cared worked hard and played hard. What do we have now oh that’s right none of the above
It's called asleep at the wheel. It is the PepsiCo way. Thank you to all the 20-30 year employees providing a succession path that goes nowhere except out of business. Well done. We deserve it. Bottom of the heap.
