Associate Attorney General Tony West is heading for a job at PepsiCo Inc. after he resigns from the government next week, according to two people familiar with the matter.

West, who negotiated almost $37 billion in settlements with Wall Street banks over shoddy mortgage practices, will become general counsel of the Purchase, New York-based soft drink and snack company, said one of the people, who asked not to be named because the move hasn’t been announced.
