      Mars/Wrigley allowed me to grow and develop but didn't financially reward my efforts.

      Pros

      Great pay (higher than any other company in the region); real global environment, where you can modify the ways of work from another region of the globe; opportunity to travel abroad; lots of benefits, bringing the feeling that the company really cares about its employees; great approachability with senior leaders and board members.

      Cons

      There's no limit for activities to be pushed at the worker; unrealistic work hours for some teams (44 week-hours plus 10 weekend hours); policies about career path and growth make it seem wonderful, reality is completelly different; lots of junior managers without previous management experience using analysts work to grow and forgetting about analysts later; brown nosing environment generates frustration in hard working employees; yearly mandatory develment plan doesn't necessarily lead employees to the positions they wish to reach.

      Fast paced, challenging work in a laid back and fun-loving environment.

      Pros

      Culture, culture, culture. Associates' commitment to the 5 Principles is felt across all functions in each of the segments, and the open-office floorpans really contribute to the collaboration and sense of community present in all locations. Also, the diverse segments of Mars provide many options for a long and fulfilling career within the company. That being said, Mars values independence and associates who take initiative with their careers and within their roles. There are innumerable resources for development and advancement within the company, but if you're not willing to take your career in your own hands it will be hard to move up!

      Cons

      The constant availability of candy and ice cream pretty much guarantees you'll gain 15 pounds within the first month of work...at any office...even in the Petcare division!
