Pros

Going home at the end of the day.

Cons

Every day is a new negative at this place. Force out your talent and hire more office people who add little if any value to your process. Every one of which has to come up with some new fancy acronym to justify their position. Constant change in procedures and processes by people who never even set foot on the production floor. No accountability, engineering is nonexistent. All claim to be working from home. Rarely answer emails or texts. From quality to maintenance to engineering everyone has left. It will take years to replace the talent that has left this facility. Mid level managers rarely leave their office. Constantly watching cameras that are supposed to be for "food safety".

Thank you for taking the time to write a review to share your experience with us and provide such constructive feedback. Yours is clearly not the experience we aim to offer our Associates, and we're incredibly sorry to hear that during your time at Mars you did not receive the right level of support. We deeply care for our Associates' wellbeing and development, and are dedicated to always improving, so we would really appreciate the opportunity to discuss this further with you. Please reach out to your previous People and Organization team. We look forward to hearing from you.

Pros

Decent work/life balance Decent money 2 weeks off at Christmas Free chocolate (not as much as you'd expect) Some nice people

Cons

Management are idiots that take credit for people in the factory doing all the work. Management force you into work after suffering a workplace injury and get signed off. Occupational health have no idea how mental health works. You're expected to eat from a vending machine at weekends. Lunch gets stolen from the fridges. Management out you on PIP when you are off with mental health issues.
