@bj while S&T hubs in Spain and Poland wont disappear in 2026, their footprint ( FTEs) will be significantly diminished though-out 2026 . India is much cheaper! PEP leadership does nor care about the commitment their had made to staff in Spain or Poland. Prepare for more storms to come in early 2026 in global S&T. Im only waiting for my 2025 bonus payout

@bj Poland? Really?
@a7 I’m in S&T and none of us got it (that I personally know)
Corporate here, no email.
Other regions, in particular Europe will be further impacted in Q1/2026 to avoid bad press before Christmas break. S&T hubs in Poland and Spain, operations in UK and Germany
Here is what we received in Canada.
PEPNA Employees,
This week, we’re taking steps to better position us to drive growth in a fast-changing marketplace. We will be making structural changes to our business that will affect some roles in the company.
Out of respect and empathy for those impacted, we’re asking U.S.-based PEPNA employees – located in Chicago, Plano and Purchase HQ locations, as well as PBUS Division Offices and PFUS Region Offices – to work remotely this week. For Canada, we're asking all Mississauga HQ-based associates to work remotely on Monday and Tuesday this week.
We know that change can bring uncertainty, and we want you to know we’re approaching this moment with respect and care. As we navigate these go-forward changes, it’s important to prioritize the well-being of our colleagues and maintain business continuity.
Employees should expect to hear more information from leadership in the coming days. Thank you for the dedication, teamwork and resilience you show every day. Together, we’re building a united future for PepsiCo North America – faster, stronger and better.
Based on how many people have been trying to task plants with worthless projects lately. Im gonna guess a lot of people just now decided to start working and are now worried about losing their jobs. If you dont want to worry about being unemployed, actually do some work
PFNA corporate, no email still
Elliott Investment Management and Pepsi have come to a settlement.
S&T first got the email saying to WFH, then got another email saying “ooops” that email wasn’t intended for S&T in Plano and Purchase and we SHOULD go to work as normal. Talk about scaring the sh-t out of people! That’s a horrible miss HR! So now S&T will have zero productivity wondering when our turn will be. Best wishes to everyone.
Wondering the same. I have no email
