Avis sur Frito-Lay (catégorie Salaire et avantages) : Sales Representative

Used to be a good job, but management decided to cut everyone's pay. Most of the people that had worked there for years left. They now get new hires with very little training and throw them right into routes. The pay is not worth it for the hours you work

Points positifs

Work by yourself

Points négatifs

Picky management with no clue how to do the job

Not worth it

Sales Representative (Employé actuel) - Ottawa, ON - 16 janvier 2023

You'll be run ragged in a thankless, unappreciative environment with constant micromanagement. Every year you stay will be worse than the year before it.Workplace safety exists only on paper, but not in practice. Lots of injuries requiring time off.A culture that focuses entirely on numbers and does not care about the human side of business.There's a reason for the massive amount of turnover for a job with relatively good pay and benefits.

Points positifs

Decent pay and decent benefits, pay comes in on time for the most part

Points négatifs

Micromanagement, loss of independence, long hours, the EXPECTATION of free labour from Pepsico is soul devouring

Sales Representative (Employé actuel) - Ottawa, ON - 30 août 2019

I started working weekends then got summer contracts, now I get offered FT often but I keep rejecting them. Most FT people are leaving or have left; you will see many jobs post for sales rep positions which btw is not a true sales job. The company cut all commissions and now the long days are no longer worth it. Reps were able to push and work long hours because of commissions and make 60-90K. Now you'll make 40-45k max yet you will still be expected to hit targets!!!. So, if you enjoy waking up at 4am to get to grocery stores at 5 am and spending 7-15 hours a day for 40-45k this is a company for you. The company already brought out new products recently but soon they will bring 10+ new brands into the market which means you will be expected to sell more and stock more space than before but your pay will be the same. You don't get a raise in this position. People who have been here for 10+ years make the same now as someone who walked in yesterday and it WILL stay like that no matter what your told. Management lives on another planet. I once worked from 5:30am-8PM during a busy day that I knew was going to be busy so I asked for support; No help was sent; in fact, no one even knew I went home at 8pm. I don’t blame people at my local branch such as my mangers but instead just the company itself. I can now tell all the company cares about now is profit for shareholders and that’s it. Employees have become disposable. The company sends out orders to people at the top of the chain and than each manger forwards those orders to the person below him and eventually it lands at your -

Excellent Company to work for

Sales Representative (Ancien employé) - Cambridge, ON - 29 août 2018

As a Sales Representative at Fritolay Canada I learned a lot about marketing strategy, selling techniques and the food industry as a whole. The opportunity for advancements were there and my coworkers were generally friendly. The hardest part about the job was that I had to work every weekend and given my hobbies/interests I ran into a conflict with this. The most enjoyable part of the job was the independence.

Points positifs

Benefits, good salary

Points négatifs

weekend work

Good money, but even if you work hard, you don't advance very quickly.

Sales Representative (Ancien employé) - Ottawa West, ON - 21 janvier 2018

Nothing wrong with the job, it just sucks that they are not unionized and go by seniority. There were A LOT of very hard working and high performing people while I was there but unfortunately because everything went on seniority, someone with more time in would get the better routes vs someone who easily out performs them.

good benefits and pay to start

Sales Representative (Ancien employé) - Saskatoon, SK - 5 avril 2017

great benefits and great pay to start until you do really well then they take that away and make you start all over again. Year after year take pay cuts. Management is a joke out for themselves, tell you they really care about work life balance but don't observe it. Upper management is slimy and sneaky they pretend to look out for employees but go behind their backs to take them down.

Points positifs

great benefits package

Points négatifs

unsuitable management from top to bottom
