Chicago, IL (US)

Shanghai, Shanghai (China)

Former Employee – worked at PepsiCo full-time for more than a year

ProsPepsiCo China values people and truly cherish talents. There are constant changes within the organization so it presents a lot of opportunities to grow if you have high ambition and energy. Its culture is diversified and inclusive with dynamics, just like its brands.
