Pros

Their on-boarding programs are very nice in the fact that they allow new hires to really experience different parts of their business. They do a good job of getting you exposure both to Senior Management and in front of customers.

Cons

There aren't many downsides to being at General Mills. There are plenty of opportunities. One thing to be careful of is to make sure you are on top of openings that do come up and keep on top of your development. It can easily go by the way side.

Pros

Great people, okay schedule, some perks and benefits were okay.

Cons

Manufacturing, so always wanting more with less. Hard to please as they are constantly changing everything.
