- PepsiCo Dominican Republic has been recognised as a Top Employer for the first year, putting its associates at the centre of its operations.

Santo Domingo.- For PepsiCo, the most important thing is to put people at the centre of its operations and give them the tools to shine, allowing them to own their careers and their future, while each leader supports them closely, encouraging open dialogue and building a great team that moves forward together towards shared goals.
“Being certified as a Top Employer for the first time makes me very proud. It means we are on the right track, taking PepsiCo to new and higher standards where our people, as well as having fun with our beloved brands, have a better place to work, belong and grow. At PepsiCo Dominican Republic we have built, together with our people, a diverse, inclusive and flexible culture, promoting leadership in the service of all. We aim to be the benchmark for a collaborative culture in the business world,” said Jonathan Flores, senior director of Human Resources at PepsiCo Foods Caribbean and Central America.
The Top Employers Institute programme certifies organisations based on their participation in and results from its HR Best Practices Survey (HR Best Practices Survey). The survey covers six domains made up of 20 topics, including people strategy, work environment, talent acquisition, learning, diversity, equity and inclusion, well-being and more.
“With a culture of service and inclusion, PepsiCo in the Dominican Republic offers its associates a variety of opportunities for personal and professional development, such as optional training and in-person and digital learning platforms. Our people are our most important pillar, and giving them tools to grow is what has allowed us to succeed as a team, creating experiences for all of them that go beyond work,” said Jonathan Flores.
The programme has certified and recognised more than 2,300 Top Employers in 121 countries/regions across five continents.
David Plink, CEO of Top Employers Institute, says: “Exceptional times bring out the best in people and organisations. And we have witnessed this in this year’s Top Employers Certification Programme: exceptional performance by the certified Top Employers 2024. These employers have always shown that they care about the development and well-being of their people. By doing so, they collectively enrich the world of work. We are proud to announce and celebrate this year’s group of leading people-oriented employers: the Top Employers 2024.”
