Pros

Open work environment, casual, in some offices you can bring your dog to work, big roles (sometimes too big). Many associates want to live by the 5 Principles. If you are astute at navigating a highly complex environment and comfortable with a lack of transparency you will do really well here.

Cons

The most hierarchical non-hierarchical company you will ever work for. Associates have very big roles and although they fairly compensate in most cases many associates burn out. If you require time and development of your leadership considering other options could be a better plan.

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.
