Pros

5 Principles: You have to be a Mars person (or Martian!) to know them, but they are applicable to everyday life and guide all interactions Mars has internally and externally. It's nice to have a framework within which to make decisions. They are fond of hiring ex-military, have good FMLA and other benefits. Once you're Mars, you're always Mars.

Cons

A bit of an old boys' network. Very traditional in places, as it is a family-owned company and those tend to be places where women struggle to advance. Not very good work/life balance. Once you're Mars, you're always Mars.
