      Best Company I've Worked For

      Pros

      Great people! Great culture. Fair salary and benefits. Work-life balance - if you chose to make it a priority. Opportunities to volunteer in the community while getting paid. Ample development opportunities. Clear, written objectives, which are agreed to each year by associates and their line managers. Sustainability is a priority. Opportunities to make cross-functional and international moves within the company.

      Cons

      As happens everywhere, there are some less than exceptional line managers that make the job difficult for direct reports. When interviewing, be sure to assess the hiring manager just like he/she will be assessing you.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Benefits are spectacular (401k with match and a pension). Fellow associates are bright, engaged, and some of the sharpest people you'll ever encounter at work.

      Cons

      Despite the vast portfolio of brands, you really don't get the opportunity to shift from, say, Petcare to Chocolate or Wrigley. Senior leadership is a revolving door, and that means tons and tons of reorganizations, shifting priorities, and inability for anyone to make a decision. The re-orgs have been brutal (imagine heavily recruiting people away from other companies only to let them go six months later after their position was deemed 'non-strategic' by new leadership). No one seems to retire from Mars - they either leave or get re-org'ed out. It's great to get Mars on your resume - and you'll make great connections - but don't expect to spend your career here.

      Open office environment isn't for everyone.
