Pros

Mars has great salaries and great benefits, Engagement and development are important, talented people to work with, fun brands to work on.

Cons

Unfortunately, Mars has become a highly political environment. If you are not in the correct political circle you will struggle. This includes perceived alliances as well as real. The organization is also relatively flat, so advancement is difficult.

Pros

Great people who believe in a common mission. Strong leadership and support.

Cons

Budgets and decision making for technical programs are centralized at a high level with little to no consideration for how it affects individual programs and their unique needs. Heavy bureaucracy involved in setting up simple things.
