Ocean Spray PACT

The irony of my current job at Pepsi Cola is that carbonation hurts my stomach, so I do not drink carbonated soda very often. Luckily, we sell more than just your basic Pepsi. Since I am on a new health craze, our newest product suits me very well!

Mountain Dew Baja Blast

With 511 products in our Manhattan, Kansas local warehouse, it took more than just overnight to get familiar with my new job. Being a new hire, training took place and lasted till the middle of May. When school ended for the summer, I went full time, just in time for one of our most popular limited time products.

The Backstory

After landing the job as a Business Administrative Assistant at Pepsi, I realized how much I would enjoy the 20 hours a week I would be spending there. Working a part time job while taking college classes can be stressful, yes, but it is so rewarding to me. Not only is there the cash flow aspect, but the personal contribution I choose to make to help a company succeed in the real world.
