Pros

The industry is a fun one and working for a company with such a diverse portfolio of products is wonderful. I personally feel incredibly supported by my manager and love that they listen to what I say and advocate for me. As somebody with a chronic condition, I can say the healthcare is wonderful. The employee store is an added benefit. There are plenty of opportunities for education. I have a great work-life balance. I absolutely love working here. We just have some problems that desperately need to be addressed.

Cons

- Modesto is a terrible city to work (commute is long, shuttles don't change that) - No creativity within marketing org - HEAVY privilege of white, heterosexual males. No POC or LGBT at the Director, Sr. Director or VP+ levels. (Employee Resource Groups don't remedy this.) - Promotions only happen when somebody quits, not because somebody is actually don't a great job.

Pros

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

For the area, this is one of the best places to work living in the Central Valley.

Cons

Priorities aren’t aligned across the business units. There’s a real lack of what it means to work at Gallo these days. Each group is out for themselves.
