"If you want to underachieve/fly below the radar, look elsewhere."

What don't you like about working at PepsiCo?

"Managers stretched TOO thin, instead of working on the few most important aspects of the business and getting them right, managers are expected to work on and improve MANY areas, thus watering down the attention and focus paid to the most impactful items."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Pick three big things to attack as a team and move from there. Managers are people and there are only a certain amount of hours in the day, weeks in the year, etc. to excell. In order to do better, the job must be made less complex, for technicians and managers. Additionally, although inclusion of diverse managers is important, it should not be the top criteria in attaining talent. Affirmative action hiring practices are detrimental to the business when their importance precedes real qualification for a job."

"Be white and male, you stand a good chance for success. Anyone else know what you are getting into before you join this corporation. Start by visiting with the CEO, I don't think he knows how to spell color, then ask to speak to someone that looks like you. In my opinion the Federal Government should pull all its contracts from this corporation, and find corps that live in today's society, not the 1950's."

What don't you like about working at Harris Corp.?

"They have not learned that their company needs to include all people of color, not just Caucasian males. This corporation is very racist to the core. It starts with a CEO who does not take the time to know his employees to HR VP who only works for awards and not the employees that work there."

"Start over and integrate, this is not the 1950's. Get diversity training and do away with the Good Old Boy network."
