Pros

Health Benefits Retirement Benefits Employer Events/incentives Employee programs Strong employee Development programs Very high Compensation based on actually job duties

Cons

Lack of supportive leadership Lack of consistency Lack of effective performance management Time keeping system- scanning in- I had issues with the scanner reading my hand. Even though we had another system to track me entering and leaving the building. Too segmented. My team was was support to handle FMLA administration, but the position was really that of a senior data entry tech/assist/clerk. Not much independent decision making. All the focus was on sending letters and entering information online and on spreadsheet

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.
