      Pros

      Flexible work schedule Decent pay Nice people in lower band positions in the organization Free coffee and candy

      Cons

      Backstabbing Nepotism runs rampant here, so watch who you become friends with When you get to a certain level of management, it seems they consist of a bunch of divas that have no clue how to do their jobs or are not willing to make a decision that would make them accountable for anything

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      -Incredible people and culture: by far the most fun and highest performing team I have been a part of -Open office promotes collaboration and helps build solid relationships with co-workers -Strong focus on work-life balance and associate wellness -Generous benefits and compensation -Passionate about development - Wrigley is devoted to providing development opportunities to employees and helping them to map out and achieve the career they want -Being privately owned (by Mars, Inc) allows us to do what is right for our category, stabilize it and establish a reasonable growth rate, thereby making decisions for the long-term health of our company and brands, instead of short-term decisions to meet shareholder expectations -Wrigley's connection to Mars also provides many additional career opportunities, both in the US and internationally -Concerned about employee engagement, and provides fun activities and service opportunities as part of the work environment to help associates be satisfied at work -Operate with the Mars 5 principles, which enhances and gives extra meaning to the work

      Cons

      -Gum is a challenging category that has been declining for several years, so can create interesting conversations with customers -Visibility to other Mars career opportunities is low right now (it's hard to tell if something would be a lateral, a promotion, etc) but they are working to correct this in 2015 -It can be hard to stay connected to headquarters if you are at a remote site, and I understand it is hard to promote or change functions if you start in the field (Territory Sales Manager)

      Excellent Employer

      Associate marketing manager

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      It is easy to focus on your development with the different tools it has. It is becoming more strategic each day and it is easier to impact the business and the results.

      Cons

      Often a lot of time it is spent in meetings that are not as efficient. There is lack of comfort with honest confrontation so a lot of alignment needs to happen behind the scene which is time consuming.
