Pros

Good corporate training sessions, senior management participation. Good company principles, well developed. Privately held company, very flexible. Lots of free stuff.

Cons

Change management procedures were very poor at this site. Managers were evaluated based on popularity with associates. Poor work life balance. Long hours and lots of weekends.

Pros

Strength of the brands is what sets Mars Inc apart from it's competitors. It's also an ethical company which places value on it's employees, at least more than most other big companies. Being privately held allows leadership to make solid long-term decisions without being tied to the short term share-price driven thinking that drives public companies.

Cons

Very few down sides as a place to work, with the exception being limited career opportunities for development, as the company is already top-heavy salary-wise.
