Pros

Great people to work with, research rich organization, a leader in the confectionery business, has the feel of a smaller company even though it's part of the massive Mars organization.

Cons

Certain departments are staffed with long term employees who are comfortable in their roles therefore the opportunity for mobility and role changes/promotions can be limited.

Pros

great benefits, flexible environment, lots of opportunities for career development & training, not a hyper-competitive environment

Cons

The entire company (Wrigley especially but Mars as a whole) is totally lost when it comes to growth. Emphasis is on taking costs out of products rather than adding value, so great ideas get squashed or stripped of whatever makes them interesting. The focus on developing talent means that people are sometimes put in positions that aren't appropriate for their skills or mindsets because they need to be promoted or want to learn about a new area.
