Im looking for a good long term career choice. Ive liked what ive read so far about Frito Lay and was just curious if anyone had some inside info good/bad on them. Thx in advance!

we pull for frito at times thru our company and have gotten to know quite a few of the drivers. Most of them seem happy and have stayed with the company for quite a while. They also seem to keep there drivers fairly busy the only complaint i have heard and when we sometimes encounter when we pull for them that the load may not be ready to go

There trucks are governed fairly slow, according on one of their drivers with whom I spoke. But loads are light. They seem to have a waiting list for drivers. I think they pay fairly well.

"But loads are light." Ya' think? How heavy can chips be? They don't even fill the bags full. And yes, there's some sarcasm there. BOL

My uncle put himself through college(University of Florida) driving a local delivery truck for them and enjoyed it. They're owned by PepsiCo and have a Profile Sheet on CAD. 8)
