General Mills Employee Reviews for Point of Sales Representative

"Fair and honest"

What do you like about working at General Mills?

"I had the freedom to work as a sales rep with very little supervision which was a good thing. Sales meetings were good but sometimes very little information could be used in the field. Over all I enjoyed my job."

What don't you like about working at General Mills?

"Because of the lack of supervision many of the sales reps took advantage of the freedom and were not giving General Mills the amount of work that they were getting paid to do. Yet they made it look like they were doing their job.At one point a sales rep was doing the computer work for one of the supervisons because the sales rep had a great bit of knowledge on computers and the supervison didn't. In place of helping the supervisor, the sales rep on days that she did computer work she didn't go out into the field and do store work."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"understand that not all areas are the same and that not everything can be sold the same in every account"
