Pros

The only pros are job stability. Most wont stay around for this heavy workload

Cons

No work-life balance The pay is terrible for the amount of work you do. I’ve been at Frito for over 10 years and it is getting progressively worse! More work but not more pay. Three years ago when we were On commission pay it was great. You got paid for what you did the more you sold the more you made! Now we are on a pay for performance scale which doesn’t allow you to make more money. The more you beat your sales plan by the more they increase it in the next few months. Therefore making your upcoming plans unattainable. Which in the performance pay world means you get a terrible paycheck! Im talking some RSR’s are selling 60k in product a week 240k a month and if they don’t make plan which might be 260k they lose money. I’ve heard of $200 and $300 paychecks! The turnover is high and it will continue until they pay accordingly. We drive a commercial vehicle, deliver, stock, order,build displays, build rapport with store managers and grow the business yet the pay is stagnant and the growth is lacking.

Pros

Good health insurance package Great paid and unpaid time off (it’s just very hard to get it because of the blackout days) They leave you alone…until they don’t

Cons

Completely incompetent “supervisors” that don’t listen to a damn thing. Anything that is said is just ignored. Turn over is very high for drivers and office staff. Children run that place now. All bonuses are no longer. There are cookout 1-2 times a year with the same exact food. The pay is not worth what you have to go through. You have to work through your hours so you don’t get forced. The top guys had been forced before. The trucks are always filthy like animals are living in there. Bottle with urine, food left laying in compartments and on the dash. Other drivers don’t do PTI’s or at all. New guys come in and make the same pay as a veteran driver. Not worth it mentally and physically. There ls just to much to put in here.
