Pros

Matching Pension and 401 K Plans. If you're around long enough to collect it. Great Company to work for if you are a rear end smoozer! Get as much as you can up front because raises are a joke even if you're a Top performer! Their 5 Principles .. WHICH BY THE WAY NO ONE IS LEADERSHIP LIVES BY.

Cons

* Company disorganization with Field Sales Team blamed for all the Mgmt issues. * Leadership team says NO Re-Org coming... Instead they call it a RE-Routing! * Only way to get ahead here is by kissing up to all the Leadership team. *Extremely wasteful Company. * VERY Cheap. *Promises bonuses you will never get as they constantly change the goals if it looks like you'll achieve. *Bonuses are based on Company performance rather than Individual.. therefore you can work your butt off and get the same pitiful bonus as the slacker does. * Yearly review process is horrible!! * Leadership Teams have no idea what the heck they're doing. * Constant product/mfg. shortages make it impossible to achieve goals. * Family run business but the family is never there. * Run mostly be people from Europe that have no clue. * TRAINING IS NON-EXISTENT HERE! * TSM Job presented as a Sales position but all you'll do is merchandise 99 9/10ths of the time. * VERY hard to move up unless your part of the "Cheerleader Team" * Company never want to hear what's wrong just want's smoke blown up their rears. I can go on and on but I'll close with.. Expect Re-Organizations going forward every 18 months.

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.
