Pros

General Mills offers Fair pay and good benefits plus you get to work with honest people who care about each other.

Cons

Most employees join and work from the ground up. Consensus is necessary to get anything accomplished making decision making frustrating and slow at times.

Pros

Overall great company for a large corporation. I have worked for one other large corporation and it was not good. General Mills truly had a team culture from the top down to the shop floor. Ideas are given due consideration and the compensation package is outstanding. A lot of the package is tied directly to your performance but it is done quite fairly.

Cons

Nothing that is worth putting in writing.

Pros

- A company that embraces families and strives to impact the community. - Excellently educated people are abundant. - Opportunities to grow your career are plentiful.

Cons

- I cannot think of a single negative - perhaps lower compensation. What you lose in direct compensation is gained in benefits and productive work environment.
