Pros

Candy and ice cream ! ; ) Potential to move into other areas of the company Can work independently with alot of red tape When the bonus is good; its really good Open social office Everyone willing to help each other management is very visible and pretty transparent

Cons

Long work hours working on off -hours to get the job done competing with same level associates for ranking during review time Lots of time and efficiency wasted due to numerous "reorgs" at least 2x a year in Sales Benefits have declined significantly over the last 7 years My retiree health benefits would cost $1500 a month (employed 20+ years)

Pros

I’ve been at Mars (Yorkville site) for about three months as a Quality Systems Senior Specialist, and so far it’s been a great experience. Everyone has been genuinely friendly, welcoming, and willing to help. The culture feels very supportive—people want to see you succeed and are quick to share knowledge and offer guidance. My manager has been amazing and is truly invested in my growth. She’s helped set clear expectations, encouraged development, and provided the tools and support I need to be successful.

Cons

None so far—still new, but my experience has been very positive.
