      Pros

      Very Innovative and competitive. The work environment is awesome at the corporate level. The factories are something to behold to see all of the massive machinery and clean work floors. The associates are respectful and majority tend to have a lot of passion for bottling water.

      Cons

      Lean operations can create undue stress at times. Work life balance challenges based on workloads

      Advice to Management

      None!

      Pros

      Pay, Benefits, 401K, Career Advancement, Leadership Development, Great Local Leadership and Associates

      Cons

      Uncertainty in the company future. Price increases have caused factory volumes to drop resulting in the shutdown of factories and staffing reductions in current factories. Company talks of being in transformation phase, but really no clear cut picture on what company is transforming to become.

      Pros

      Pay, health benefits, 401k, career advancement

      Cons

      Uncertainty of future of the company. Price increases of product has reduced volume for factories, which in turn, has caused factories to shutdown or reduce staffing. Company is in current transformation but leadership doesn't comment on what the company is transforming to be. Not much belief in current corporate leadership from field.

      Pros

      As the largest food and beverage company in the world, we are leading the industry in sustainable business practices, specifically as it relates to plastics, and that makes me proud to work for this organization. As a very lean organization, there is a lot of opportunities to lead high visibility projects that have a big impact on the business. I am learning so much in such a short period of time, which is... propelling my career forward!

      Cons

      We are being outpaced by our value and premium competitors in the category, which has put a strain on our businesses and resulted in a complete restructure of how we find value ($) in our organization. While this is an exciting challenge to overcome, it is a challenge none-the-less, and company culture and morale are low as a result of cost cutting (lay-offs) and burn out (being over-worked). Senior management is... not as visible as they should be in 'rallying the troops' to help boost positivity.

      Pros

      If you are a hard worker and take initiative, you can stand out and excel in this atmosphere. The people care about each other. A lot of recent investment in the facility.

      Cons

      The same people are tasked with improvements continuously and accountability to other leaders has been low in the past.

      Advice to Management

      Invest in people and leadership training, build robust onboarding process so leaders do not have to learn as they go. Continue the cultural turn around. Innovation or brand management needs to be a bigger focus to stay competitive in the market.
