PepsiCo’s marketing internship is a chance to spend a summer tackling business challenges alongside experienced marketers in one of our three U.S. headquarter locations: Chicago, IL (PepsiCo Foods & Gatorade); Purchase, NY (Pepsi Beverages); and Plano, TX (PepsiCo Foods). We rely on interns for fresh perspective, and in turn we let them showcase their ability to provide a meaningful, comprehensive business recommendation. As interns fact-find and problem-solve to reach a recommendation, they enjoy great autonomy as well as full support, guidance, and feedback from their managers, cross-functional partners, and the broad marketing organization. Interns have the chance to learn the business, build a network, and, potentially, earn a full-time opportunity upon graduation.
