PepsiCo

@

Give us some info on what they said . I have an info session on Jan 17 out here in Cali . The rancho branch .

 

Interview went well! All but offered me the job, have to go for drug test/physical then take a road test then they can officially offer. Pretty sure they will.

 

Congrats, watch your email. The hiring manager called me a couple hours after my interview and verbally offered but told me watch email as everything with Pepsico happens thru the email process. That is where you will officially accept. From date of offer to start date it was about one month for me.

 

UPS_RH. Do u drive for Frito Lay now, which location? (Going by 'UPS' handle I'd assume not, but...) I'll just need to sell my house in PA & find a home in VA...pray all the logistics of that fall into place!

 

Ha, I have made quite the tour! After retiring from 20 years of gov work I started part-time with UPS. I realized I was too old to put in the time to get to driving so bailed for Fedex Freight. I loved working for Fedex, great company. But the cold got to me and I decided to move from the north to Florida which was always my plan after retirement. I got on with Pepsi and worked there a month or so before Coke called me and I bailed for Coke. I have been w Coke for a couple months now.

 

Do you do Bulk??

If so how many stops do u have a day and how's the equipment??

 

I only do bulk one day a week, the other four are OFS stops. The equipment is fair, my assigned truck is a B class Freightliner, everything works but the A/C. We are in and out so often that I don't think it much matters anyways. The bulk trucks are def nicer and everything works. I average between 9 and 12 stops per day. I have had as much as 14 and as low as 5. We work 10.5 to 12 hours per day on average. We are overtime after 40 which is why I left Pepsi. I have usuall 14 to 17 hours of OT per week. I start at 0430 Tues thru Fri and at 0300 on Saturdays. Saturday is always a short day the most I have ever worked is 9 hours. I am usually done in about 7.

 

Yeah I work for Coke Consolidated in VA..

Right now I'm at a Hardee's waiting for a foodlion to open up lol..

We average 5-8 stops.. The equipment... Let's just say if you're at the bottom of the totem pole, I feel bad for you...

We're finally fully staffed so hopefully the summer won't be as brutal as it was last year...

But yeah OT after 40 is nice, I just wish they gave us Saturday off

 

I have a interview wednesday. Applied for food service/vending product delivery. Keeping my fingers crossed hopefully everything will work out. Anymore insight on this particular job?

 

Probably talking full service/vending. If that is the case you just go around to various schools and businesses and refill the vending machines. Its a bit easier than the regular store routes but may pay slightly less. The routes usually do best when school is in session.
