Pros

Has good benefits and competitive pay. Good established principles (not always followed now)

Cons

Used to be principled. Sr. Managers now blind to mid manager deficiencies. People join companies, leave managers. Watch for many leaving in the near future. Sr. Leaders are disconnected to the associate base. That used to be a strength - now a huge weakness. Only listening to news they want to hear. Very sad.

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.
