Pros

Good career development program, lots of trainings regularly available to help develop. Lots of nice amenities at headquarters like gym, child care, etc.

Cons

Not innovative in the slightest. Moves incredibly slowly, and products aren't healthy for you despite the advertising. HR structure very rigid and not adapting to employees' needs.

The people and the capabilities at General Mills are what make it a wonderful company to work for! I feel like I am constantly learning on my desk and that makes the job so rewarding!

There is a lot of lingo to get used to. Once you sift through that the job is a lot of fun!
