Business Outlook

Pros

The pay was fair, benefits are excellent, health, dental, vision, 3wks vacation, 401k, a savings plan, a yearly bonus, and a picnic.

Cons

Once Wrigley was bought by Mars, everything slowly but surely went to crap. Production/manufacturing employees were treated as expendable slaves. No trust, no morale, safety is an issue, management just doesnt seem to care(not all but most), use of scare tactics, HIGHLY STRESSFUL ENVIROMENT!
