Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We would like to address your feedback around misleading candidates on job responsibilities and the uprooting of families. We work very hard to make sure that our candidates have an accurate picture of the job in which they are applying. This includes “day in the life” job shadowing and clear discussions around promotional career paths, which often includes the opportunity to relocate as you grow in your career. With regards to your “Advice to Management” feedback, the conduct you’ve described does not align with our corporate values and is greatly concerning. We do not condone any kind of illegal or discriminatory behavior within Gallo. If you would like to confidentially discuss your comments, please contact our third-party, confidential ethics hotline at (855)331-1488 or via ejgallo.ethicspoint.com. Thanks, Susan Hensley Vice President, Human Resources

Gallo has extremely talented people and incredible products. I’ve found real opportunities to learn, grow, and make an impact.

Cons

Fast pace at times, with occasional shifting priorities. Very few downsides overall.

Pros

* Historically, a company people were genuinely proud to work for—strong culture, clear values, and a sense of loyalty *I could have seen myself building a long-term career here and often spoke highly of the company to others *Strong early-career development and brand recognition

Cons

*Erosion of trust driven by abrupt, poorly communicated decisions *5-day in-office mandate for some offices rolled out with ~2 months notice, removing autonomy employees previously had, adding unnecessary strain to already demanding roles, and significantly disrupting employees’ day-to-day lives *Parental leave benefits were significantly reduced in a way that feels misaligned with the culture and “family-owned” values the company has historically emphasized. This change has been a meaningful source of frustration and disappointment for many employees *Poor communication on major changes—including benefits and office policy updates, which were not consistently or transparently shared *Employee feedback does not appear to be meaningfully incorporated into decision-making, even when concerns are raised through formal channels * The culture has shifted dramatically. What used to feel fun and energizing now feels rigid and overly monitored, with less trust and autonomy than before *As a result, the company risks losing strong, previously loyal employees and becoming less competitive in attracting new talent
