Yes, you'll have tons of rotations, both good and bad ones. Most of the first or 2nd rotations you have will be super basic and boring roles. These roles can be done by a new graduate fresh out of college or an experienced hire with an MBA and 5-8 years under their belt. Business need comes first and you just have to push through for the first few rotations. Plan on reaching for Leadership development on your own. They believe you can develop into a leader through different rotational experiences. Just because you are promoted, does not make you a leader. There are Finance Managers that are only finance managers and not leaders. Watch out for the Finance managers with no direct reports. They will pray on financial analysts- there's a reason why they don't trust them with direct reports. Don't expect much on-boarding support. With rotations happening at all levels of finance, they acknowledged they have a problem with onboarding and are working towards improving it. This is not a globally minded company. Do not expect to get international exposure or experience. You will be focused on the US region and will occasionally hear about General Mills' global efforts during a quarterly downhill. If you are someone who thrives in a global environment or loves the idea of a global assignment, this is not the place for that. With business declining quarter after quarter with no end in sight, the morale is low. There's quite of bit of micromanagers that someone continue to get promoted. You can expect a list of to-dos with bullet points and meetings before the meetings to "align" and "gut check" and "check-in".
