Pros

Market leader that the rest of the wine industry looks at as the best. Family ownership is very involved and cares for their employees. Great perks and talented, smart people throughout.

Cons

Not being a publicly traded company, Gallo needs to compensate taking competitor's stock options into account.

Pros

Family first atmosphere. Extensive opportunity for advancement if you preform. World class training in all facets of the industry and sales that is renowned across all industries. I have had endless job offers from other companies ever since I put Gallo on my resume... I am still a Gallo employee and plan to be for the foreseeable future. I look forward to my next promotion and challenge.

Cons

Heavy and endless workload (which I would prefer over being bored and unchallenged). A lot of travel (a lot for work but also some for all expenses paid incentive trips). Notoriously underpaid (but have since instituted impressive bonus structure). They are a very self aware company and keep their pulse on the moral of the enterprise.

Pros

Gallo is a family owned company, so we are not beholden to stock holders and quarterly reports. We are one of the largest companies in our industry, and our growth is outpacing the overall category. Gallo has a very family oriented environment, many of my best friends are also employees.

Cons

As the category leader in our industry, people are often recruited by our competitors by offering higher salaries.
