Pros

Huge company, strong brands. This used to be a great place to work. But between the layoffs and the shift to less people but more work that greatness is lost.

Cons

2 rounds of layoffs in the past 10 years and the 3rd will be here soon.

Work Life Balance, Dog Friendly, Inclusion, and overall excellent atmosphere. I am blown away at the communication and willingness to help raise up employees.

Must have drive, and be a self starter.

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.
