Trouble brewing for Pepsi's Nooyi (Obama pal, USA-hating CEO to get the boot?)
NY Post ^ | 12/23/09 | JOSH KOSMAN and HOLLY SANDERS WARE

PepsiCo shareholders' enthusiasm for CEO Indra Nooyi is beginning to fizzle.

Amid a stock that has lagged archrival Coca-Cola's, and flagging beverage sales, a number of investors say Nooyi faces a significant test in 2010 to turn around the Purchase, NY, company's fortunes or get an earful from an increasingly impatient shareholder base.

Moral of the story-—

Don’t bring in an American-hating, globalist, socialist Obama lover to do a man’s job.

I recall hearing the marketing droids ripping this redesign apart. Buncha freaking wankers get promoted to the top and torpedo a successful brand. Still makes me laugh every time it happens.

Pepsi can take its support for liberal causes and move it to europe where it might be appreciated.

Yes this woman from India heads up Pepsi. Pepsi is very active on numerous political causes. Amazingly these causes generally don’t support traditional American values.

Stand by for this Congress to pass a law making it illegal not to own Pepsi products. (No American should be without a Pepsi!)

Baring that, she can be the new soft drink czar on her firing from Pepsi. Her America hating past would make her a good fit in DC.

That "generic" Tropicana packaging is both boring and lame. Must be a committee design! I like the old original "Tropicana Girl" package design myself...

So how are those logo hope and changes working out at Pepsi, Gatorade, and Tropicana?

I can't speak for everyone, but they have inspired me to find alternative beverages.

“I will not buy from that whore’s company”

I agree. I immediately stopped buying anything from their family of companies after she was identified as so socialist/anti-American.

“the one with the half-glass of yellow orange juice”

Interesting that you say that. I never realized it was supposed to be a glass of juice until you pointed it out. Terrible design. Wonder what they paid the wonder-kind for the losing designs?

“Still makes me laugh every time it happens.”

Until they then decide to become politicians, and then it isn’t funny anymore; think Carly Fiorino (sp?) who, although conservative, was a terrible manager!

wow! Why do companies pay to destroy their brand????

Delta did the same thing years ago when the then current CEO changed the air lines Deltoid and the paint scheme on the planes to "look more European". idiots

I stopped drinking Gatorade, when I couldn't find the familar old logo. The new design gets lost on the shelf.

I honestly didn't know that Tropicana and Gatorade were under the Obama loving Pepsi corporation. Now that I do, my family won't be buying it.
