Work Experience (Former Employee) – Carrigaline, County Cork – 21 June 2019
It was only work experience for secondary school, so i didn't get a real feel of it, but what i do know is that is a very enjoyable work environment. Everyone was busy doing their job.
Good place to work
Warehouse Operator (Former Employee) – Cork – 22 May 2019
Very good place to work.
Good money and plenty of OT.
People are really nice and always ready to help.
But there is one "BUT"..
Why there's not even one foreign person on a Perm basis?
I don't belive there wasn't even one Lituahnian or Polish as good as Irish.
I think that is a very big problem in this company.
Everything else works well.

Supply Chain Senior Coordinator (Current Employee) – Cork – 13 September 2018
I work in data oriented team with excellent management. Training is a bit sketchy at times, however this is not due to anyone's incompetence, but merely high work load.
Pros
Good office culture
Cons
Training could be a bit better
Fantastic team to work with
Office based (Former Employee) – Cork – 23 May 2018
This is the longest I have been with any company and I am excited to be moving to a new role (still with PepsiCo) but in a different part of the world. As I leave I cannot recommend working at PepsiCo in Cork enough: Amazing, friendly team who are hardworking and supportive and who you can have some fun with along the way. The everyday work experience is exciting, varied and challenging and helps support overall career development. The management, even at the most senior levels, are approachable, caring, authentic and inspiring. The team are particularly supportive of female development and as a woman, I think it is a great company to work for.
The pay and benefits are also above the average in Cork for similar roles. The best thing about it all though, is the wonderful colleagues who you’ll work with everyday.

General Operative (Former Employee) – Cork – 21 June 2017
I would recommend Pepsi to anyone looking for work. The work is interesting and keeps you busy. I had plenty of opportunities to learn new things and was given every chance to further my career. i will say that it is a very difficult company to get a permanent position as an operator with.
They pride themselves on life/work balance and are very good when you need time off (within reason).

Great place to work
Process Operator - Food Flavours (Current Employee) – Little Island Roads, County Cork – 19 April 2017
Working in Pepsi is great, money and hours along with the balance of family life is perfect. The social seen is very good they always try and bring people out of themselves, many nights out and parties. Work itself is like been self employed than anything you get to come up with new ideas and see them through too the end result.
Productive & friendly workplace.

Business Analyst/Financial Analyst (Former Employee) – Cork – 10 October 2016
I was involved in a project with other five members in PepsiCo, we were received with open hands and were support throughout the project. It was an academics college project that was carried out for a period of six months and it was not a paid work as it was part of the experience needed in preparation for the business world.
Pros
Knowledge of the buisness world gained
Cons
n/a
Productive and great experience.
Production/Process Operator (Current Employee) – Cork (Urban), County Cork – 19 January 2016
Working in the process rooms, if you have a good head on your shoulders and can accept responsibilities, it's a great opportunity to learn. Some days are so busy that the day is gone before you know it. The skills that are passed on are of great benefit. You are teamed up with a trained person and they pass on the knowledge. Management is great, friendly and very easy to approach and they also have the "no such thing as a stupid question" policy which should be in all working environments. Hardest part of the job is knowing that your enjoying your job that the time is passing quickly and that your contract is coming closer to an end as they mostly take only temps.
Pros
Great learning experence and management.
Cons
Temp positions only.
As per review below.
