Pros

It's a fun atmosphere. They are focused on their associates engagement and it's a top priority to them. Work/ life balance is above average.

Cons

They are a lean company which tends to put a lot of hats on people. This can drive engagement down. People have a ton of stuff on their plate and with the pay scale being on the lower end of the averages, causes good associates to leave.

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.
