John Sculley is the former CEO of Pepsi and Apple. When he was at Pepsi, he climbed the corporate ladder quickly. The MBA grad started in an entry-level position that included driving Pepsi's delivery trucks and posting signage in 100+ degree heat.
"They didn't know what to do with me, so they put me out in Pittsburgh, in a bottling plant, and I worked in the bottling lines," Sculley told Business Insider during a podcast episode of "Success! How I Did It."
"Then I was sent on to Phoenix, Arizona, where I also drove trucks and I put up Pepsi signage in various neighborhoods in 120-degree heat, and I was then sent on to Las Vegas for a month of training, and then I finally ended up in Milwaukee."
