This is just RIDICULOUS. While you may not agree with Donald Trump’s political positions, unless you are a criminal or an islamic terrorist, there is no reason anyone should be “terrified” of Donald Trump. Then again, there are people who are terrified of the boogeyman, aliens, and bigfoot. HINT : It’s all in your mind.
What we think this is all about is “sour grapes” from a Hillary Supporter who is still sore. Perhaps Trump supporters should boycott Pepsi if this rhetoric continues.
Business Insider Reports
PepsiCo’s CEO said the election of Donald Trump as president was terrifying her employees.
“I had to answer a lot of questions from my daughters, from our employees. They were all in mourning,” PepsiCo CEO Indra Nooyi told Andrew Ross Sorkin at The New York Times’ DealBook conference on Thursday.
“Our employees were all crying,” she said.

Shut up and sell Pepsi!
Here is yet another corporate executive that can’t figure out whether they’re in business to play Social Justice Warrior or sell a product and make money. The board needs to dump this woman before she turns Pepsico into a Target…
No Coke, Pepsi.
RIP John.
This is what happens when you have an Affirmative Action CEO. What a ridiculous and pathetic statement from the CEO of a very large company, then again Pepsi always sucked. I bet they have Chief Diversity Officer as well.
Some ‘good’ people are terrified of evil so I suppose it’s logical that some ‘evil’ people are terrified of do-gooders.
I will say this about my boss (well, my primary boss – I work for more than one business). He is a big Killary supporter, Democrat but even more so because he has a story to tell about how he developed a relationship with her 20 years ago using his networking skills. He’s also gay. But he puts business first – above being a Democrat, gay, anything else. He isn’t whining about losing, he’s working on developing new business, writing a new book – moving forward as he always does. There are things I don’t care for about him, but I respect his ability to generate income for dozens of people and to create business through his speaking and connections.
@OpenTheDoor: Good one – I haven’t thought about that skit in years.
“Cheezborger,cheezborger,cheezborger…!”

She is one of a yuge number of lazy people who put their own brains in neutral and let propagandists of one ilk or another pump thoughts into them. Well, perhaps not lazy. Perhaps stupid.
The injected thought in this case is “Donald Trump cannot possibly win this election, and that’s a good thing because he is sexist, homophobic, xenophobic, blah blah blah.” Now that the first part turned out to be false, these people are STILL lazy and/or stupid because they believe the second part. It is hard to distinguish such creatures from programmed robots.
No soda pop ever.
Don’t forget this is the company who changed their logo to match Obama’s.

I checked the article. She looks
hispanic. Seems that Pepsi hired
lots of hispanic snowflakes to
operate their company.
Hasta la vista to another former
American brand.
Hey Indra.
Have a Coke and a “Phuck Ewe.”
Pepsi sux. 😡
Remind me again.
Which candidate prominently featured the muslim father of the mass murderer at the gay nightclub in Orlando?
Oh that’s right. This is a fact free tantrum.
Come Alive!
You’re in the Pepsi Degeneration!!!
Just showed my age there.
Are her employees all undocumented illegals? Maybe someone needs to do an inspection.
Pepsi is anti-Israel AND anti-Trump? That’s all I need to know.
41 grams of sugar in 12 oz of Pepsi. You should have barely that amount over 4 days.
Why not just drink cyanide instead?
I like an occasional cola. But ask ANY doctor and they will tell you drinking pop is not healthy for you. Coke probably heads the list, but the doctor never specified. Like most Americans, I enjoy a soft drink, but have severely limited the amount I dink.
For those intolerant of leftist companies like I am and wish to punish by withholding dollars like I do, here’s a quick list of their products, other than Pepsi itself.
Frito-Lay
Quaker.
Aquafina
Aunt Jemima. Raaaaaaacist
Cheetos
Cracker Jacks. Time to change some song lyrics too.
Hope you like red, Pepsi.
Because not only is it the color of the country. It’s gonna be the color of your balance sheet.
My CEO’s public pronouncements are all tinged with liberal group think. He is surrounded by liberals in key positions because liberals are attracted to positions of corporate power so that they can boss around and rule over the productive. They don’t fight against the government when, year after year, the government imposes ever more ridiculous mandates upon the company. No. They just help the government cram the mandated crap down the throats of the folks working for the company.
Just one example: Not one mention of how the Fed changed our health insurance into merely expensive, crappy catastrophic health insurance.
BTW, diversity departments are the same thing as the old soviet union political officers they had monitoring their organizational leaders for ideological purity. If you are a CEO reading this, disband your diversity office and then fire everybody who complains about it. Productivity will increase. Morale will improve.
I think that most big companies, like the one I work for, have diversity offices as a pre-emptive defense against lawsuits from fired employees who happen to belong to a sanctified victim group. The can tout their diversity indoctrination as proof that they don’t discriminate.
@plough jogger.
Take a stroll through your company parking lot.
Hillary sticker? Fired. You just can’t proclaim your reasoning.
My corp hq has lots of cubes with obama stickers and posters. It’s corp endorsed bullying in my mind.
Stupid, stupid people…..
As a CEO, you should keep your happy a$$ed political opinions to yourself……
otherwise you risk your company’s bottom line….
If it’s a private company, fine spout on…..but if it’s a publicly traded company….
YOUR BOARD OF DIRECTORS SHOULD FIRE YOUR A$$.
Never gave the Sugar Tax dip shits the time of day. Thanks to Pepsi, I’m going to start supporting a sugar tax on carbonated beverages. Garage and pantry swept of all Pepsi products. They’ll never see the insides of this house again. Forwarding link to lotsa patriots while I’m at it.
@eternal cracker p:
Sugar? Really? I thought US Pepsi was sweetened with high fructose corn syrup which is even worse for you.
@Plough Jogger, et al. – Regarding corporate diversity crap…I may have told this little story before but it bears repeating.
It was probably in the early 90s, 20-25 yrs ago, and the terrific private software company I had gone to work for in ’85 had gone public and merged and grown into a damned normal crappy corporation. The HR people decided we needed to limit liability for discrimination and so started to set up diversity training for all employees. Being good collectivists, the first thing they did was contract with appropriate consultants who immediately scheduled, you guessed it, a focus group get-together. A three-day focus group get-together, no less. Three lost days filled with all the now-commonplace diversity crap.
Cut to the climax: On the last day, we wrapped up with a Q&A session. Now, here’s a twist. The name of the consulting company was Eris Group and their logo was a golden apple. Eris is in Greek mythology the Goddess of Discord, and her claim to fame was to to lob a golden apple into a group of other female goddesses, saying this is for the most beautiful of you. Naturally, the goddesses had a tremendous free-for-all fight over who that was.
So, being the smart-ass of the group (whole company, actually), I had to ask, “How did you ever decide to name your company, a diversity training group, after the Greek Goddess of Discord, and choose a golden apple for your logo?”
The room went quiet, and three of them running the show looked at each other with wide eyes and blank expressions, and after quite a pause the leader said, “No one has ever asked us about that.” No, they didn’t answer my question.
Discord. It’s what you get with forced diversity.
Considering the venue, I know that some won’t believe me, but the following is not political.
There are people that manage (hire and supervise) people to keep nuclear power plants from breaking down. There are people that manage (hire and supervise) people who are “intellectually differently enabled” to do jobs they are capable of. People that are capable of doing the latter (managing) know that the tasks and supervision required in the two businesses are different.
You might be able to convince me that you had no way of knowing that your Chinese supplier was “cooking” the quality tests by adding poisons to the raw ingredients. But if you hire people to read the tests that are mentally in-(not “differently-”)capable of processing the information contained, and acting accordingly, then it really doesn’t matter. If you are in-(not “differently-”)capable of understanding that, then you can’t even convince me that you had no way of knowing.
I don’t know that I can trust PepsiCo brands, as a safe food source, anymore. PepsiCo deliberately hires people that suffer emotional breakdowns over an (ostensibly) first-world, democratic election. Put out of your minds (if you can) all the “activated sleeper terrorist” undertakings you’ve already seen, for years. Do you want the safety of your food under the control of anyone who is weeping over not getting their way in an (ostensibly) first-world, democratic election?
And who’s going to fix it? (Just like the Democratic Party) The people that insist that putting these people on the job, was a brilliant plan, all along.
For those of you waiting for the board of directors to do their job and settle this person down. don’t hold your breath. Most boards haven’t done what they were created to do for decades now. Boards were supposed to look out for the shareholder but nowadays they are mostly rubberstamps for the CEO or President of the companies. Sales at Pepsi would have to drop dramatically and that drop would have to be directly attributed to the CEO and her comments/actions for them to be forced into doing something. The only reason they would is because of stock options they have been gifted losing value.

Ya that!!
Too bad Joan Crawford is gone, or she would bitch slap this CEO into the gutter. Good enough reason to continue rejecting any Pepsico product. Penalties are in the payback, Missy.
@PHenry:
Take me out to the ball game,
Take me out with the crowd.
Buy me some peanuts and pork rind snacks,
I don’t care if I never get back
@uncle al
Ya done fixed it. That cannot be improved upon.
Boycott Pepsi and all their brands…..
If I want a coke, I will have a COKE. full stop. (From the south) Pepsi can bite me.
@Uncle Al (1:20 PM comment): So after you were fired from that company, where did you go to work?
🙂
