Frito Lay Employee

"Great place to work so far, solid benefits and pretty decent compensation for very easy work. The interview process is a little detached from the reality of your work and the person I spoke to painted an entirely different picture of the job they were going to be offering me. I was upset originally about that but it is incredibly easy to change your job at any given time while working for this company so I'm not too worried."

"I've been with pepsico/Frito lay since 2013 and the company has been great to me! You will definitely earn your money and some days will be much longer than some but at the end you will have plenty of support from upper management"

"Good for diversity candidates. Others not so much. Most management is very young and robotic. Not human."

"Horrible! Worst work-life balance. Supervisors don’t care about the front line. Hiring young people to bully the sales force. Upper management doesn’t care and expects you to work 7 days if necessary. Upper management lies to you and they manipulate your plan to keep you from making bonuses."

"I've been at Frito Lay for more than 12 years now, and have been very thankful for the stability and income that they have provided me. That being said, the opportunities to advance from Frontline Sales into middle management are very few and far between. Compensation has been lowered and moved from "commission" to "bonus", and the process by which Sales positions are paid in this bonus program is far too confusing for even the most experienced of representatives."

"I have worked for Frito Lay since 2015. The hours are long but the pay is good. Frito Lay is the leader in the snack industry in the world so there is a ton of job security."

"I have worked for Frito-Lay for about 5 months, I picked the job up after being laid off from my Sales Manger job at the start of the pandemic. My experience with the company has not been great so far. I fell ill a little over a month ago, and they told me to fill out for short term disability, the claim was denied and I have been stuck in a loop ever since. Unfortunately, I haven't been getting paid, bills have been stacking and I have ended up in more debt with this job than what it is worth."

"In spite of the current Covid pandemic (this is being written March 2020) we are expected to continue as usual, potentially exposing us and our families to this dangerous illness that has already claimed tens of thousands of lives worldwide. The company issued a $25 per day bonus as compensation for a max of 125 a week, no more than 4 weeks. We are "important, appreciated, and worth a lot to the company." We are also being asked to be flexible with our time (work extra shifts and off days) to ensure our customers (stores) are taken care of (have plenty of junk food)."

"I beleive that working for Frito Lay would be good if you are a highschool student just trying to make some extra cash. I don't think this is a good fit for someone with bills, a morgage, a family, due to the pay being very very low."
