Good opportunity for advancment. Great benefiys and pay. Very friendly and helpful co workers. Supervisors always willing to help with any problems.

I loved the people i worked with! Free cereal was another great benefit. A Typical work day is working your machine and just making sure it is producing the product. The most difficult part for me was balancing work and life. I never seemed to get caught up on sleep... and did not like who i was becoming because of it.

you was always busy on the lines....i had to make sure the popcorn was in boxes right....cake mixes.....fruit roll ups...

I loved working with General Mills. It has great values and they respect, develop and invest in employees. Working with General Mills was like working with a family. GMI has a diversified working culture. I had a learned a lot form this company. Learned new management tools to drive the process.

Good Company and plenty of room for advancement is you can become part of the “team”. Horrible work force and heavy union.

I got along great with the co workers
I would like to work first or third shifts
We only had 20 min breaks that was bad
The mangement was bad we went threw three managers in 2 years

General Mills values individual development. It is a relationship-based company that emphasizes work-life balance. It is a big-company environment where it is difficult to efficently take action. The levels of management are complex and difficult to navigate.

The employees at General Mills, Inc. treated me very well. The training was simple and easy to understand and General Mills, Inc. provides a clean, safe, and productive work enviorment

LOVED WORKING FOR THEM, THE PEOPLE THERE WERE GREAT TO WORK WITH, THERE JUST WAS NO JOB SERCURITY.

The people I worked with were very nice and they taught me alot. The management could use some human relationship skills.

A great place ot work. Excellent work/life balance and benefits. Lots of training available to grow employees.

It was never a dull moment.The work was hard but satisfying.

Fast paced environment, always on the move. Continued search in saving money for the company and finding ways to reduce waste.

A world company with a mission to make lives healthier, easier and richer.

I enjoy working for GMI, but feel that they are struggling, as many other packaged food producers are, to figure out what its role is in the current economy and culture.

They make high-quality products, but, as a duty to their shareholders, they continue to remove quality for the sake of margins. It's a delicate balance--one which many other food companies – more... are struggling with--but I think they've swung too far toward the "value" side, while charging premium prices at the same time. – less

A real good company to work for, with a los of incentives, great insurance plan. Good management and relationshipmwith all co-workers.

General Mills was a nice place to work u got along with everyone could work overtime.I learn about different of cerals and machines.

General Mills does an excellent job hiring quality people with great attitudes and vast knowledge. If you are considering a career here the people will do their best to train you even if they aren't provided the correct resources. I would say the most difficult thing to adjust to is the work schedules and the dirty work environment. General Mills provides – more... industry leading benefits and great pay. There is limited career advancement. – less
