Finding out that I was laid off hit me hard. I don't think I will get many offers in the coming weeks. I'm already in a panic just thinking about it, although maybe there's no reason to panic? Unfortunately, the job market seems to be actually much... — read more 

It's been clear to me for a while now that things can only get worse here. People are already talking about the next round. Cuts have become a constant and hard work is not valued here at all. So what's there to hope for and why make additional... — read more 

Some of the most capable and hard-working people were laid off. I am shocked because I think that no company that cares about its future cuts such employees. Instead they should be doing everything they can to retain them. I wonder if the... — read more 

I can't be the only one who knows their workload is about to double if not even triple after the dust settles on the latest layoffs. The work of my laid-off coworkers has to be done, and unless they hire replacements right away, I know those of us... — read more 

I have worked for PepsiCo fo many years. They get move or get rid of any mangers with no more than two years in one position. They always have hug layoffs to bring in grease blood when colleges let out or they graduate from college. They are cheap... — read more 

I was an IT person working for Pepsi in Florida and was laid off three years back…Reading here today it seems like they just did another round of layoffs. Don’t be sad or angry…The grass is definitely greener. Everyone in my group who was let go... — read more 

Next week we'll hear VP's hosting "All Hands" meetings trying to lull the remaining sheep into complacency until the next go-round, all while trying to sell the Pepsi as more than just another company. Wonder if that's a line item in their PDR... — read more 

I seem to have survived, but I'm lacking motivation and it's hard for me to focus on work. I lost excellent colleagues, as well as the little remaining trust I had in the leadership. How to be productive after all this, when people are already... — read more 

I never thought that my job was guaranteed, however, the notice still surprised me very negatively because I was giving 120% of myself and I somehow thought that I would survive, that my efforts would be valued. It is difficult to deal with the... — read more 

The latest layoffs have exacerbated an already bad situation. Throughout the past several years, I keep seeing teams get smaller and the work remains the same. This is not a sustainable way of doing business. It's only a matter of time before most of... — read more 

I heard this was just the start, does anyone know anything about phase 2?

I was quite shocked when I found out that some people were impacted for whom I would never have thought could be a target, considering their skills and knowledge. It is impossible to know for sure, but it seems that the criteria for targets are... — read more 

Im 50. My position was eliminated on Tuesday. During my Zoom session with line manager and HR I asked how my standing would fare with an active application for another role in PepsiCo. The HR rep Indicated that an individual had been identified. But... — read more 

I'm quite nervous about going into work tomorrow because I'm not sure what to expect. I hoped that the threat of layoffs would not last until the very end of the week, but it seems that more anxiety is to be endured.........

After so many years of loyalty, investing huge efforts in this company, I am now laid off. I regret that I often put my work before my personal life and family. They don't care in the least whether you might lose your home, whether your children... — read more 

So we were told about our layoff through other employees not management. While we were laid off Human Resources said they couldn’t attend our meetings which seems totally wrong. Company preaches family but does the opposite.

Does anyone know what teams/departments have been the most impacted? Especially in PBNA. I’ve heard a lot of IT teams are being let go and outsourced-is this true? And do you think more will be impacted

PepsiCo is an evil, evil company. People give their lives and their best years and they just discard them like trash. Age discrimination at its finest and they get away with it. Someone should stop them.

I have a feeling that the majority of those who are being let go were already notified yesterday, and only a small number is left for today. I know there's no way to get official numbers, but just from listening to people and reading posts that seems... — read more 

After 24 years of service, my Sr Director decided to tell me the news while I am out of medical leave. He didn't have any compassion and in fact tried to 'get me to come in' to meet HR. I told him I could barely walk cause I have 18 stiches in my... — read more 

Seeing people posting they got the axe, but not more details than that. what role were i doing so we can see the trend?

Curious if any entry level positions have been laid off or if anyone with under a year tenure has been impacted

VRP dates are above Interesting that folks impacted are being told their official last day is Dec 10. Feb 20th coincides with the annual valentine's massacre May 20th while odd is 1/2 way thru the year. if you aren't impacted now, prepare to... — read more 

Does anyone know if payroll will be impacted?

Pepsico should have provided a WARN notice and they did not. This is a requirement by the WARN Act to give employees 60 days notice. No such notice was given and employees are entitled to me compensated with pay and benefits for all 60 days they... — read more 

news is eComm organization had no direct email? Is this true?

At least for this round are we safe for a little bit if we make it to the end of the week

And if not immediate how long is the transition period so far?

Has anyone heard any updates on what specific positions + tenure are being impacted? Or departments in general

I was laid off in 2020, and the job market has been kind to me since then. The new job offers comparable responsibilities and income, but my commute is shorter and there is less stress. I believe I understand how you feel, and I wanted to assure you... — read more 

Is there anyone who still enjoy working here. I am not trolling, it's a frank question.

Why do we have to have layoffs all the time? In my opinion, this is inhumane. We all get stressed out, and I do not think that executives are enjoying the process either. It's simply insane to do it so frequently.Imagine the psychological toll this... — read more 

So the HQ, FLNA and Quaker people are being asked to WFH Monday to Wednesday. Anyone else?

Have I understood this correctly, that this will be happening over the next three days? I haven’t been invited to any ZOOM meetings today and I don’t see anything on my schedule for this week, but I’m not very hopeful. Does anyone know are they... — read more
