Pros

Can bring dog to work if you are in managements good graces - But you will have to completely change your personality to do so Decent enough corporate stepping stone if you want to work in Nashville

Cons

Management does not lead by example Way too much hypocrisy DEI is rampant and plays major role in office culture - Pride flags are draped all over the office Too many micro cultures in the company that breed resentment and an inequitable environment Members of the Logistics team gossip about other team members behind their backs - leads to poor camaraderie and distrust among the group Team CONSTANTLY complains - Negativity is off the charts Experience completely depends on your Line Manager - TOC team leadership lacks people skills and focuses much more on process due to decline in annual growth post COVID boom Freight Volume is down 40% this year and there are days where there is maybe 30 minutes of real work - Leads to disengagement Does not utilize team members’ strengths well - Highlights and micromanages weaknesses

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.
