![[2022] Pass the Pepsi Interview | Pepsi Video Interview](/img/n.gif)
THIS IS ON A WEEKLY PAY BASE
Yes
Okay about to check it out now appreciate that
You get paid every week ?
Do they reimburse for gas ? If not have you calculated do you pay more in gas . Then what you actually make. You seem the type to make the most money you can . (Hard worker) same here. Example you make $765 with 45 hours a week . I am assuming it is weekly pay . And with that being said what do you pay in gas ? Roughly around $300? ($765 -300=465)
Let's say roughly -200 in taxes
(465-200=265)
So ($265) is really what you profited from working that week? And that is what pays the bills .
So roughly
1 week 45hrs ($265)
2 week 45hrs( $265)
3 week 45hrs ($265)
What you make in a month ($795)
What are your thoughts ? What is your lowest monthly check . And your highest. Will you post hours beside the monthly wage. Thank you so much for giving us all an insight of the company . Most importantly being honest about it. I am considering applying . But I want to know if I would really be benefiting . Technically if your paying out of pocket for gas and they do not provide it. Your not making $17 hr. Some of that hourly wage is split into gas every 100 miles in my car is $10 in my tank . And every 100 miles is about 1hr and half or more in distance . So take from $17hr drop your hourly pay for the first hour or so your working . Just to pay yourself back in gas .
My last question would be how does your work day look like . Do you get only a certain amount of stores just in one day and are you put on a certain time limit once you login . They already know how long it will take for you to get the job done . So how long do they give you in each store. ?
Thanks man for everything.
@@HH-qj3vg I went to the interview yesterday and I withdraw because it wasn’t worth it. The amount of driving you have to do just to get to work wasn’t worth it for me. I would of had to drive 2 hrs just to get to work.
Just got in as merchandiser after working 2 years as Amazon delivery driver and 6 years at HEB ! Im also in south Texas, thanks for the info bro 💯
Goodluck brotha! Remember if you don’t do the job right no one else will!
@@johnesparza8170They gotta start saying this at our meetings, it would go a long way
I have done merch warehouse and currently a truck driver. Lots of over time in the summer. If you don’t mind lots of hours and enjoy nice checks. This is the place for you. You will be doing manual labor in all three of these positions.
So if I wanted to go see my cousin over the weekend, and I didnt want the pto just to have the weekend off, would i be able to do that? Or would they count it as my pto?
In CA this same job is paying $24.75 as a Delivery Specialist.
Is mileage weekly so you made 651 ans 251 a week on driving
Yo bro how many miles per week do you put on your car from working ?
How you gonna walk in with a sprite can 😂😂😂😂😂
Don’t get high on your own supply
haha I don’t hold my household hostage on product purchases!
😂😂😂😂
Which app r u using for the gas app
I’m in Baltimore Maryland we get paid weekly. Union signed a new CBA last year that bumped pay HERE. You start at 19.71 an hour I believe.
What was your frist day like did you get trained
What do you like about the job?
How long is training.
Do you get paid weekly ?
Great information.
That mileage is crazy bro
In CA job is paying $24.75 - $27 as a Delivery Specialist Class A license....Merchandiser $20 - $27 depending on need and location per their website.
Just realize how terrible Texas overtime pay is. In CA we get 1.5 x per overtime hour worked. But then again, CA living cost is much higher than Texas so it all balances out in some way or form.
Does a "Delivery Specialist" drive a truck?
@@stratstrangler Yes, company truck.
Texas is the same OT rate bozo
So in total you made 1945.10 for that week!?
Was it orientation like on your first day? And do you know how how often them give raises?
Thanks
Just visited different accounts during the day and then had to do paperwork really it. I think it’s been yearly or at least year and half. Merchandisers didn’t get a raise in my first year though so I can’t really say until I get another raise.
@@johnesparza8170 do they drug test as part of the hiring process? I’m going in tomorrow for an application
@@johnesparza8170do and how they drug test ?
What would you say is the most challenging part of this job??
there is a wide variety of things that could be deemed challenging. For me personally it’s been following up behind people that do the job to the full extent so it throws extra work on my day. Also salesmen can send heavy loads on the days you dread going to work haha
@@johnesparza8170eps always load orders when theyre off bro it’s the worst😂
Where you at bc in Florida pepsi merchandisers are making nearly 20
Texas
Does anyone know a way you can apply without having insurance, for example could I use someone else's insurance information?
are you referring to auto insurance?
@@johnesparza8170 yes
@@idk.drizzy5029 you don’t need proof of insurance to apply but they do ask later on for it
That would be illegal
I work a full time job. Can this be done as a part time gig?
I wouldn’t say so. It requires a lot of time maybe as like a night time position.
I got offered an order replenishment merchandiser for a night shift 3pm-11:30pm for $25 an hour. Is it worth working nights?
Bro I hope you took that job.
Also. I’m in San Angelo, TX. Aye! Haha.
But yeah.. I have a interview on Wednesday.
Good luck!
Do you get paid to travel to work then home mileage?
yessir
I briefly worked as a Pepsi merchandiser in 2021 and they didn’t pay us to travel to work or back home. I had 3 stores once which were like 1, maybe 2 miles apart and I had to travel at least 30 miles to get there. So I only get reimbursed for 2 miles? Such a BS job lol
Do they give you free drinks or anything like that? My buddy got free chips from Frito lay
no. They have employee buy days where you get certain products at a cheap rate.
Hi whats the differences between sales rep and merchandiser?
sales rep is the person who places the order for stores. They are on a different pay scale because they make money on commission + the hourly rate they have. I’m not really sure what that is but some guys said they money is good.
@@johnesparza8170 Commission means how much money you make selling an item or good. So from my understanding they have an hourly wage plus their commission for orders placed for the stores.
@@MichaelScott-my8uh correct.
Its been 2 months ago so this may not matter but I am a sales rep for Coke. We do merchandise as well. Our pay is based on salary plus a nickel for every case sold. It's a decent living but having a good relationship with your merchandiser is key communication is imperative. You can quickly watch a store go to crap if salesmen and merchandisers are not on the same level.
Is mileage part of the gross pay or no?
Like let’s say you worked for $60,000 that year
And you got paid $10,000 of mileage
In your tax papers will it say $70,000 or $60,000
gross pay. it’s just non tax income but still counts
@@johnesparza8170also how is OT calculated and is it worth it
I'm in Georgia just started not to long ago. Are you still with Pepsi????
Did you have to do an on site assessment?
Can you tell me some of the interview questions they will be asking?
I cannot sorry. I could try and find them.
No worries I had the interview today and I got the job thank you
@@redcarpet1061 congratulations!
@@redcarpet1061 how’s the job 👀
following lol got an interview soon
Do you get gas card? Or is it reimbursed
Reimbursed. We are at .655 cents per mile right now, it varies based on location
Can someone or does someone know the Vacation(pto) time from 0-10 years
6 mo 1 week vacation 2 personal 3 sick
1 yr 2 week vacation “ “
I forgot how it goes after highest amount is 4 weeks though
@@johnesparza8170 That's not to bad
I work for Frito. I’m thinkin bout changing vending companies lol
Do they do Mouth swab or Urine Drug test ?
Urine
@@johnesparza8170how long did they give you to take the test
Worked at Coke and pepsi for 2 years as a merchandiser full time and the hours and labor ain’t worth it.. work part time now in sales at t mobile and still making more money than I ever did as a merchandiser with better benefits
Foreal working for Pepsi they labor your body and your car…. 😂
sounds like bitch to me
At coke and pepsi as a merchandiser, the manager culture towards you is , Go.!!Go!!.Go!! Lift lift lift, Run run run...while they remind you that you aint shit in the company..😊
@MrComic97 I work for 6 years for a miller/coors distributor ,my car at the end it had 140k miles when I finally quit working there😂
Pepsi is hard work but I’m a picker they just bump us up to 22.36 down here in tampa but I want to move to Texas
We’re at 28 in cali
@@ahmedalsunaidy1348 word that’s what’s up fam get that money
you a soldier for being in warehouse haha I hear crazy stories from the guys that leave the warehouse to come be a merchandiser
@@johnesparza8170 gets a little crazy in there been in 6 days the past month in a half but I’m not complaining lol my check looks good every week plus they added a incentive plan so you can make even more money 💰
It's about the same here in Houston
Are they paying daily or biweekly
weekly
Does Pepsi upgrade merchandiser’s to truck drivers after so many years if the individual would like to upgrade?
No , but you can move up
@@kingrobs89no but yes? huh
you don’t get “promoted” there can be openings for different positions that you can apply for but they’ll never just promote you out of the blue
Yes it is possible to change positions. You will have to be in your first position for 6 months.
You will have to attain a Class A CDL first
Hello guys, Is Pepsi union? How much do they pay for health insurance and is there any 401k or pension plans, tuition reimbursement?
Thanks,
Yes union yes 401k and yes they help pay health
Not all locations are union.
I’ve worked for Pepsi and Coca Cola. Pepsi pays more, has better benefits, better management standards. But neither are the best company to work for if you wanna be a merchandiser. Look into bread or cupcake merchandising. You make much more money. Like bimbo bakeries or little Debby for example.
Do not look into bimbo in NC guys bad company
What are your work hours?
6 am until you finish your route. I try to work 10 hrs or so a day.
So you get paid weekly?
Yes every Friday.
How long after the physical assessment did they offer you the position
My location doesn’t do the physical assessment. My situation was a little different then most. I was recommended by a friend who is a higher up and kind of got hired on the spot so I really couldn’t tell you how long
@@johnesparza8170 got you got you well I just got the news I didn’t get the job Preciate the response though
@@chaddross1920 how was the physical assessment? Did they respond right away? I go in 2 days
@@manuelmagana1801 they make you load a pallet of 2 liters and have you stack a display I guess you got to do it in a certain time and I think it was like a week after my formal interview
As a merchandiser do you make the orders for the store?
In my region we do place orders on salesmen days off. It all depends on location for sure but not all merchandisers will have to. We have a total of 14 merchandisers and only 5 place orders.
If think it depends on the company when I work for 7 up as a mech we never had to places orders that was the sales reps job
Vegas , weekly pay $20 an hour and $0.65 a mile
Do you guys get a lot of mileage?
Warehouse 22.20 Vegas😢
Did PepsiCo provide you with a uniform?
Yes! It took a minute because my facility doesn’t have uniforms on hand. They had to order them and that took 3 months hahaha
Yes took me 2 weeks to get them
is this a good job at 19?
I would say yes. It's labor but it's good starting out
77 thousands a year
Merchandiser is different from driver
bar none one of the worst jobs i ever did. so glad i got out of the bottling industry. shitty management, back breaking work, and the only way you make money is by working over time and picking up stores. as stated in this check. you worked so many hours to receive a check which was honestly not worth the 70 plus hours you put in for it. on top of the fact the wear and tear on the vehicle and waking up early in the morning every day. what a miserable life style. but to each their own. now i work for Costco making 35 an hour, only working 40 hours a week and making over 70k with benefits not feeling like a total piece of shit. good luck out there, hope you find a way out.
To make really good money as a merch you have to work a ton of hours. Extra hours five days a week and coming in on your off days. Once you divide the salary by the total hours you have ended up working you quickly see it's not worth it.
@@jimpimmers5387 i worked for both pepsi and coca-cola up here in washington. trust me i know. they make you seem like youre making a lot. really, youre just selling your soul to the bottle. terrible company and practices.
@@asmrtingles2147do you work as a truck driver at costco
What do u do at Costco bro? Definitely interested in making that!
@@Luis-229_ I work as a receiving manager/forklift operator.
You need to work as a merch for wine distribution. Way better
Were at 26.17 an hour in the Bay Area California
What about mileage rate? Is that $26 enough to survive in California? I know cost of living is way more expensive there than texas.
@@johnesparza8170 65 cents but I don’t drive as far as you do my route is close to home so I bring in anywhere from 100 to 120 a week on mileage
@@johnesparza8170 yea it’s enough with all the over time and working 6 days a week the checks are big but no overtime and just 40 hours no way I can survive on cali
@@rjacevedo49 yeah we just got pushed to 40 hours starting next week so we’ll see how much the pay changes. Gonna be trying to hustle the mileage haha
@@johnesparza8170 wish we did 40 hours a week lol they got us working 6 days we understaffed hella bad
The first few weeks I made 1300 as a noob
In CA ?
Smh why they don’t give us a car to drive make no sense at all
implemented into how you get paid, it’s worth it
1:04
Went for a interview with pepsi and they never called me 😂 i am cool with it
At coke and pepsi as a merchandiser, the manager culture towards you is , Go.!!Go!!.Go!! Lift lift lift, stock stock stock...while they remind you that you aint shit in the company..and your very replaceable while paying you peanuts..😊
I work at Pepsi and I make 25 dollars an hour
Where do you work? Just curious. I make $20.50 an hour as a lead merchandiser in Missouri. I work 6 days a week, that’s the only way I make money, overtime and mileage

Just a heads up. You will have no work and life balance with this job.
There is absolutely no money in merchandising, your at the bottom, and they sure remind you all the time that your at the bottom.
Overtime is HALF PAY? 1.5x pay? wtf is that
Bruh literally What you get paid an hour x 1.5
