Pros

Great brands. Great people. I was proud of the quality products we produced and would still buy the product vs the competition.

Cons

Relied too heavily on the power of the big brands. Needs to live in the real world and stop focusing on downsizing to make budget. They have lost too many quality people in the recent 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.
