      No where to go. they don't like to promote from within the factory because they would have to train somebody else new.

      Pros

      Half decent pay. there were only 2 cost of living raises in the last 13 years.

      Cons

      swing shift and NO advancement. management does NOT listen to the factory workers aka associates. what a joke. The Mars family is always on the list of the richest people in the world but they treat their employees terribly.

      Pros

      Lots of freedom, chance to learn about all business functions.

      Cons

      Unpredictable, roller-coster business results. Organizazion changes every year. Strategy sounds giid, but very weak execution. People are expected to move into a new job every 18-24 month...weak functional knowledge...

      Pros

      Open environment. No offices. Allows to bring your dog to work everyday. Casual dress code.

      Cons

      Very political. Technical decisions made by non-technical associates. Food microbiologists are not valued or heard. Responses to emails or requests is dependent on person's title (upper management don't reply to lower level associates). Upper management is arrogant, political, and disrespectful. HR and managers don't take actions when needed, even when associates are harassing others. Company allows some associates to be complainers and abuse the system. Horrible upper management and HR (P&O) associates who aren't trained on how to lead.
