I was given a job offer and told to show up April 9th and 10th for orientation. The HR person I spoke to never told me where to go and didn't give me a time to show up. I started calling 2 weeks before I was to show up with no answer and finally 10 days before I left a message. Now a day before I should have left Milwaukee to go to Topeka she finally answers the phone and tells me that she hadn't heard from me so I was made inactive because she didn't know if I was showing up. I clearly told her that I was not declining the offer. Now I have two storage units filled with everything from my house except my refrigerator, stove, and bedroom set. She also told me that if I had shown up I wouldn't have had a job so it's a good thing I did call because otherwise I'd be sitting there stranded in Topeka not knowing one person and not having a job. Unbelievable! read more

Attention Drivers!!! You do not want to pick up any loads here!! 1.) The Broker (especially Landstar ones) will not disclose ahead of time that Frito-Lay will be expecting you to go WAY OUT OF ROUTE about 165 miles to avoid the mountains to Salt Lake City. So of course no I-70W, and no to the big majority of I-80W. All of the routes take you up I-25N and up through Casper, so you basically make a huge hump out of normal route over I-80W. You will not be compensated for the extra miles & not told about it until after you are finished being loaded. This affects your overhead & expenses. 2.) They DO NOT TRUST DRIVER'S to actually take their bogus freight revenue stealing loads on their expected routes, fully knowing they aren't PAYING you for those additional miles. So you will have to provide fuel/scale reciepts to prove you actually took the money/time wasting route, in addition to being tracked. Which begs the question of if you are tracked why are they so paranoid to put you out by spending money on extra fuel up/scaling if you don't need them? I will answer that- because YOUR TIME & MONEY doesn't matter to them. Of course you avoid high elevation with potato chips, but this is extreme uncompensated BS. At least be forth coming & PAY DRIVER'S for those additional miles...but they still won't because them not paying you for that mileage covers them if any of their poorly sealed potato chip bag seal breaks. They put that cost on us driver's & still claim it as a loss later. This is the biggest disrespectful company I have been to besides a Food Lion. Now let's get to the dreaded loading time. 3.) They have HORRID WAIT TIMES!10 hours to load. This is NOT how you do business- EVER. They will make you run your clock right out of hours & as you can see if you read other driver's comments collectively, they have their security tell driver's generic responses all ready to go....Security claims to know "nothing" & they will tell you "the paperworks not on site." What a joke. How many driver's do you tell that lie to as seen in the complaints here & still KNOW NOTHING? lol 4.) If your delivery is going to the Frito Lay plant in Salt Lake City, that is a crock as well. Appt. time is not adhered to & a 6.5 hr wait to unload. They do not allow drivers to park on their property. They tell you to go down the street by a dirt lot- which when you get there has "No Parking" signs every couple of feet. Then you see a paved parking lot with tons of smashed glass & debis where you could park or spin around- that is IF a cop isn't sitting right in the middle like there was. lol Best to go to Sapp Bros & park until after they call you. After you do get unloaded they leave your trailer filled with debris. Drivers save yourself the headache, lost revenue and time and find freight to haul with a company that aren't a bunch of jack you around disrespectful crooks. read more

Hello Lay's I've been eating lay's chips for over 35 years my favorite is kettle cook original the last year the kettle cook has been greasy from absorbing too much old grease the color of the chips are darkish brownish I buy at least two to three bags a week at 2.99 lay's was very understanding and fair they did send me for coupons but it doesn't do any good if I use the coupons to replace the money and when I open up the bag I got the exact same result this is a billion dollar a year company and I'm a loyal customer I'm so disappointed lay's I think it's time for me to just to give up on lays why can't y'all just change the Grease read more

Frito-Lay - Topeka, Kansas

Great place to work! lol didn't know they had a yelp account here! Second largest chip producer in the company! read more

I loooove Frito-Lay, but y'all are wrong for the pretzel ratio in your flaming hot munchies. The bag was like 80% pretzels and everyone knows the pretzels are the worst part. Probably cheapest to produce also so I FEEL U. Now I'm having to throw pretzels out onto the highway and sift through this bag while driving for the actual good shit. C'mon fam. read more
