Mars reviews

It's a typical manufacturing environment in which the workforce is not valued and turnover is at a ridiculous amount. I started with about 20 other associates about 2 years ago. There are 3 of us left. Orientation painted a picture of this paradise. A totally different work environment with opportunities you could only imagine... and I bought right into it. Only problem is that beautifully painted picture does not apply to people on the production floor. We are a separate entity from the rest of the plant. Now Hackettstown is a unique facility. We have our national office attached to our manufacturing building. So its an interesting dynamic, but there is a clear divide between the two. Opportunities are present and if you are willing to put in significant time and network successfully, you have a chance. Though it is highly competitive and often have large amounts of people internally competing for a single job.

no balance between personal and work life. Team members opinion is not valued. No advancement unless you are related to someone in management. Team leads don't look out for the team at all! You can never really tell what days you will be working/off because it is ALWAYS subject to change!!
