      Expectation to network incessantly, promotions seem more about being well-liked than anything else, cult-like place where there are prescribed norms for how you act

      Pros

      Good Health Insurance and starting vacation time. Services available to employees on site. Fitness Center. Can buy products at the store on site.

      Cons

      Low salaries and low increases in salary if you are not in upper management. If you are in an area you can become branded in that type of position.

      Pros

      General Mills encourages rotating through multiple different positions in order to get a wide perspective and better understanding of our business processes and challenges.

      Cons

      As with any large company, there is a fair share of red tape and rules. Even if a manager wants to promote an employee, HR may shoot it down because of generic rules.
