Pros

Excellent benefits, bring your dog to work (only if your privileged to work in the front office). they feed you a lot and bring in candy.

Cons

They hire managers who have no experience in the job they are doing. Then the manager will do everything in their power to get you fired if you are a threat to them. They are quick to sweep things under the carpet so they won't get in trouble. Circle the wagons around the protected few. What started off as a good plant went downhill fast.

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.
