Dr Pepper Snapple Group Reviews

Current Employee – been working at Dr Pepper Snapple Group full-time

Pros – Freedom, decent shifts, physically demanding, benefits immediately

Cons – High turnover because of low pay. Low morale so people don't care about the job and then they wonder why stores hate them.

Advice to Senior Management – Pay your employees more instead of spending all your money on buying new unsuccessful products. With a lower turnover rate and higher morale, you will be making more money and you won't have to hire new people. Hiring new people results n loss of sales due to orders not being put away, drug tests and background checks, and paying for training. If this company could just provide more opportunities and pay to employees, it would be a great place to work. No wonder everyone leaves for Pepsi or coke after a few months here.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company

Former Employee – worked at Dr Pepper Snapple Group full-time for more than 3 years

Pros – A pitiful paycheck, heaping ton of experience a stepping stone in the industry.

Cons – 9-10 hours a day, 6 to 7 days a week every week= no time for family, either sleeping or working or getting ready for work. The pay is not there for the work that expected. Safety is not a primary concern, getting cases out the back door is. Dr pepper snapple group just takes from its salary employees, took away bonus, took away time and a half from its supervisors on the weekends and forces them to work it for straight pay, the hourly employees make more $ than the supervisors. Senior managers are impossible to work with, shoestring budget and expectation of middle management to make it happen.

Advice to Senior Management – Pay all supervisors buy the hour, and pay the supervisors what they are worth, upper management at the plant level is grossly overpaid for what little they actually do, and your health care plan sucks for employees, I'm sure you saved alot of $ with that turd you forced down everyones throat!

Former Employee – worked at Dr Pepper Snapple Group full-time

Pros – I believe the company is a great platform for recent graduates to launch their careers. As all big companies there is a lot of diversity between department in regards to standards and perks.
Good sound training and opportunity to move laterally withing the compay

Cons – DPSG is not the exception, with the IT department and customer support team being very understaffed and overworked. There is great management in the finance department nonetheless the opportunities for growth are limited and based on politics. The salary I would say is industry average but def not towards the upper quartile.
