General Mills - Anonymous employee General Mills Employee Review

Middle management lacks leaders. Top managment is sharp and impressive. But move down into the middle layers and things are weak, if not good. Lock set promotions contribute to this weakness. GMI has many "training/development" programs, i.e. OMA, EDP, etc. These folks are preferred vs. others that have more education and more diverse work experience. Its a very insular company. Ideas from outside of GMI are not implemented very well.
