Pros

The company value to making food poeple love. I believe the brands truly work hard to deliver on that promise. I was always proud and energized by the work. BUT......

Cons

A lot of minorities feel stuck with no opportunities for advancement. Very little developement of individuals of color, especially in certain functions. There is no diversity in the management roles for my function, and those that would be qaulified are always passed for opportunities beacuse talent is sought outside GMI.

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.
