In a first of its kind learning and talent development initiative, PepsiCo India has entered into a ‘career joint venture’ with Hindustan Unilever (HUL), allowing select employees to gain work experience at the JV firm for 2-4 months. PepsiCo India is keen to enter into more such career JVs with other non-competing companies to boost the potential of its employees. A career JV works like a two-way exchange of select, usually high potential, talent.
