Pros – Corporation, but with a more friendly/relaxed environment. Regular yearly increases (small) for good performance. Certain teams are fun, just depends.

Cons – Slow promotion/growth. Still a corporation so IT and HR have terrible service. People have been there for many years, are comfortable, and don't leave.

Current Employee – been working at Dr Pepper Snapple Group full-time for more than a year

Pros – I enjoy what I do and I like my co-workers.

Cons – This place cares nothing for their employees. I've seen too many people get fired over the smallest things. Even though we're not Union, If you don't have senority or service date your basically an on call worker. Is this how it is at all DPSG facilities? I'll call you when I need you and send you home whenever? What a joke...

Advice to Senior Management – We all know times are hard. Now's the time to show compassion for your workers, so don't treat your full time employees like temps to get that extra bonus at the end of the year.

Current Employee – been working at Dr Pepper Snapple Group full-time for more than 7 years

Pros – I would like to put some pros but there simply are not any.

Cons – employees over the age of 50 have a target backs, they are forced to do double work and are frequently threatened .
Dr Pepper management thinks they are above the law and simply pick and choose which ones they want to obey. if you report any unsafe situations they just ignore them, you are not allowed sick days and virtually everyone else there will get your illness because there are not enough people to do the work if your sick

Advice to Senior Management – upper management should talk with employees . because I don't think they would like having the general public know about this stuff

Current Employee – been working at Dr Pepper Snapple Group full-time for more than 3 years

Pros – I like the hours I work, going in early and being done at an hour that leaves me with a good chunk of after noon/early evening is really nice. I do a kind of subcontracting and work with someone who has a route and he has me merchandise.

Cons – The lack of any kind of medical, dental, 401k, stock option, or any other fringe benefits is a really bad con. It has made it hard to stay with the company. I do a kind of subcontracting and work with someone who has a route and he has me merchandise.

Advice to Senior Management – Add way for the men and women who run your routes to offer better benefits.

Pros – Easy going culture a lot of tenured employees. Great brands, a lot of pride in their brands. Great HR department, on-boarding was thorough. Great training program and a lot of initiatives to hone in on what they value.

Cons – Salaries are not competitive. Lack of career growth opportunities. Poor leadership has deteriorated what our department and discipline was known for. Senior management can care less about employees.

Advice to Senior Management – It's not all about you. Ridiculous bonuses and over inflated salaries are all you care about. The CEO doesn't even have the common courtesy to speak to most employees.
