      Pros

      Good benefits and also met some great colleagues while working there. There are definitely some talented individuals and true gems working at this company! Roles and responsibilities offer many of opportunities for growth as an individual contributors. Company also offers many continuing education courses to help you grow your core competencies in various areas.

      Cons

      Work life balance needs work. Honest feedback about the company and areas to improve is not received well. Mars protects their "Great Place to Work" scores by optimizing or chastising anyone who scores them low so the corporation can stay on the list. Internal hierarchy clicks are protected fiercely, many individuals sit in their roles for to long (past productivity). Favorites are highlighted within the company while others are left behind. Unfortunately, it does little for the growth of the division as it protects "friends" hindering substantial moves forward within the business.

      Hi. Thank you for taking the time to leave a review of your previous Sales role at Mars Drinks U.S. It's great to see that you've mentioned several positives , including the great colleagues you worked with. We appreciate all feedback, both positive and constructive, and we are disappointed to hear your experience has been less than positive in several areas. We have already contacted the local team so they can assess the right course of action, and we appreciate your openness to share this feedback. We wish you success, and all the best.

      Pros

      I’ve been at Mars (Yorkville site) for about three months as a Quality Systems Senior Specialist, and so far it’s been a great experience. Everyone has been genuinely friendly, welcoming, and willing to help. The culture feels very supportive—people want to see you succeed and are quick to share knowledge and offer guidance. My manager has been amazing and is truly invested in my growth. She’s helped set clear expectations, encouraged development, and provided the tools and support I need to be successful.

      Cons

      None so far—still new, but my experience has been very positive.
