Pros

- Great benefits - Great brands that you'll be proud to say you have a part of - Who can resist Cheerios???

Cons

- All roads point to MN - Very little of the touted perks are enjoyed in the field - No cost of living adjustment to salaries - Strong culture based on Minnesota Nice - which sometimes candor is needed for progress to be made

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.
