Pros

Only if your salaried, good pay for really not working to much, pretty much just hang out all day.

Cons

This has long been known as a family workplace, well that's gone and they're money hungry. They throw millions of gallons of water down the drain each day.

Pros

Who wouldn't want to work in the wine and spirits industry? Gallo is an incredible place to work. The company is growing quickly, which creates lots of opportunities. People who work at Gallo are proud of the company and its products. Great place to work and build a career.

Cons

As the company grows, the work seems to get more complicated and priorities can change quickly. Need to be flexible and willing to adapt.

Pros

Fantastic people, fascinating industry, fast-paced, high level of employee engagement. As an employee, you're able to have a significant direct impact on the business and the company's success. The company is big enough that there are a lot of resources, opportunities, and the ability to move across the organization based on your career interests. It's small enough that it still feels easy to navigate and build key relationships. The private ownership provides financial stability and a focus on sustainability. This is a great place to grow your career long-term. The dynamic industry presents a lot of exciting challenges, there are a wide variety of career opportunities to keep you growing and developing your skills, and the great people make it fun to come to work each day. Many of my colleagues have been here 15+ years, and they're still excited to come to work each day thanks to the fun of the industry and the great people.

Cons

The only downside I've seen is the fact that the company is located in Modesto. However, there are actually a few wins here: 1) Centrally located to a lot of amazing weekend adventures. Lake Tahoe, Yosemite, Napa/Sonoma, San Francisco, and the Pacific Ocean are all less than 2 hours away. If you love skiing, mountains, and the outdoors, this can be a big advantage compared to the Bay Area. 2) Much lower cost of living than anywhere else in CA. You can buy a 3BR/2BA 2K square foot house for $350K or less. 3) Warm weather year round. Dry and sunny nearly every day.
