Pros

Company is committed to health Company provides opportunity to make a real difference in what people eat High ethical standards Senior leaders listen to nutrition scientists Company has improved healthfulness of many products Pays more than any other job for dietitians

Cons

The Bell Institute is an "unusual" function at General Mills so many colleagues understand our role and may not appreciate the value we provide We work harder than people in other jobs -- longer hours, higher quality work expected Because there aren't many places for us to work in the company, we might not have as many promotion opportunities as product developers or marketers
