FRITO LAY Company Reviews and Ratings
Route Driver
Dallas, TX - March 18, 2025
Typical as most corporate companies they play little games you work your butt off cover all different shifts. You have one situation and if you’re the wrong color you get terminated through an email. Don’t even have enough respect to tell you in your face. What a waste of time. and they have a habit of turning the employees against each other with the leads and colleagues
Pros and Cons
Good Benefits.
Every now again you’ll get a good mentor.

Pros and Cons
Very holiday oriented place, birthday parties, a pay raise every quarter.
Needs better management and needs to promote people within the company.

Fayetteville, NC - September 24, 2023
32 years later and I wonder…where did the time go? I stayed focused on why I was doing what I was doing and that helped keep my daily, weekly, monthly routine from becoming a rut.
Frito Lay provided all I needed to provide well for my family and it can yours too. I laughed all through my career with Frito Lay. What a blast.
Pros and Cons
Frito Lay provided all the tools to be successful.
If you have trouble getting up in the morning then this job is not for you.

District Sales Manager
Winchester, VA - August 30, 2023
Way to top heavy as an organization. We needed a lot of help on the frontlines where the rubber meets the road & did not get the support of the company to keep us fully staffed. All of the brass in the company kept coming up with more mandatory to do"s that made our jobs impossible to manage on a daily basis. It became a 7 day a week job being on call 24/7, running routes any given day because we couldnt stay properly staffed. And then it became what I called a doom loop where you couldnt make any progress forward just trying to maintain the business. You could plan your day as to properly manage, but the minute something went wrong your plans were shot and with out the proper staffing to make a call and have someone take care of an emergency for you or run a route for you, it then became you who had to do that. All the while your tasks were still all expected to be completed each and every week as though nothing stood in your way.
Pros and Cons
Great pay & good benefits
Outrageously high expectations without the support of the company

Reduced waste by strictly adhering to packing procedures and reducing the volume of packaging materials used in the preparation of shipments.
Kept accurate and up-to-date records by documenting all movements in the company's system.
Used tools, sprayers, and chemical solvents to decontaminate work areas.
Chose products for specific routes and calculated precise placements by estimating weight, height, and center of balance.
Pros and Cons
Friend place to work no complaints
No cons at all

Maintenance
San Antonio, TX - February 22, 2023
I have a lot to say, but this is a company you don't want to work for. No room to grow so your always going to be stuck at the bottom. Your knowledge and skill levels don't matter here.
Pros and Cons
Not a company who Cares about there employees
Pay is ok but not worth the how they treat you.

Merchandiser
King of Prussia, PA - February 20, 2023
This branch of Frito Lay is clickish, almost to a cult of greed and vindictiveness. Sales managers overload stores to pad their income, while putting their field performers in a compromising position between FritoLay and their clients.
Pros and Cons
Benefits package
Piss poor support, piss poor management, badgering employees while they are sick

Enterprise Power Buyer-SME-Engineering team
Plano, TX - September 29, 2022
Frito-Lay was a fun and great place to work for 20 years. I've since retired in 2021 and enjoying their benefits. I was able to branch out with my job career there and explore what it was that I truly wanted to do each and every day. I feel that I reached a point that I was satisfied with as a power buyer, managing projects with the plants and DC's on an engineering basis. I managed capital projects in the millions of dollars, purchasing, accounting, invoicing and working with the managers and vendors. I'm happy that I accomplished all that I had wanted to with my career there.
Pros and Cons
Friendly team to work with, productive environment, a sense of accomplishment each and every day.
No covered parking at the office facility

Merchandise Associate
Louisville, KY - January 13, 2022
Started as a part time helper which with my great skills was getting full time hours, being labeled as merchandiser instead of helper. Trying to move up to a route sales representative because I would of doubled or even tripled my income but had one person in the way of myself successfully getting into that position. My horny sexual addicted Manager Melissa. In which tried several forceful attempts to sexual interact with me. I taken it to our human resources and they either called me "gay"(from men) for not going through with her actions or the I was called a "liar" (women) in which they dropped my complaints about her behavior. I couldn't just go straight to the corporate office in Plano,Tx because they will still need documentation from my office in which when she found out it became hell for me at the workplace. She randomly wrote me up for false situations, I tried transferring to facilities and was denied because she had the final approval. I miss the greatest job in the world!
Pros and Cons
Free chips, great pay, benefits, growth and home by 3pm
Bad human resources and management (at my time)

Material handler A
Rancho Cucamonga, CA - January 6, 2022
This job does have great pay at $24 hr. The problem is everything is senority based. So as a material handler ur stuck working 2pm-10pm or 10pm-6am for about 5-7 years before given a chance to go to the morning. Also after working 8 hours they can force u 4 more and if u can’t u get 1 full point as if u never showed up. U must be part time for a year before becomming full time. But if ur ok with all that then this is the place for you. Like I said the pay is great. They have lunches a lot for employees, fee chips for break and lunch, free Gatorade, pay for your shoes $120 voucher. Pay for your clothes $75 a year for part time and $125 for full time. Overall wasn’t a bad company to work for. Easy work.
Pros and Cons
Pays for your shoes and sum clothes, raffles, spinning wheel to win prizes. Huge discount on bags
Senority based so ur work u do don’t really matter cuz ur stuck for 5-7 years at nite

If you want secure advancing career opportunities, Frito Lay, Inc. is for you! Upper management works with you as you learn and progress. Work-Life balance is low, however, great for gaining experience in the business world.
Pros and Cons
Great Pay. Great management. Great opportunities.
Low work/life balance.

York, PA - July 5, 2021
I was hired with a group of people and I was the only one excelling in every task and I was the only one cross training on different departments however within my “90 days” (it was 60”) I did get fired… I haven’t missed any days or was late and I always picked up overtime but I was told I was fired because they felt as though I didn’t want to work there… But I was the only one excelling and everything cross training and applying for more positions throughout the business. I was the only one expressing interest in all the above out of my whole group. There was a lot of drama within the supervisors and coworkers and this was the production floor and HR isn’t no help either as far as to getting your job and keeping your job or being fair so that’s why I say stability isn’t so great.
Pros and Cons
Pay and benefits
Not professional, drama, unfair.

Beloit, WI - March 5, 2021
You work a lot of hours 6 days a week all the time but I do say they have a lot of updated equipment, all employers are the same no matter where you work. The only thing Frito-Lay gives you is decent pay but now other places are paying more wages now, so there are a lot of competitive pay out there now. I do gotta say frito gave me a good pension that I’m thankful for
Pros and Cons
Pension and pay
Poor management and a lot of overtime
