Pros

The nicest people I have ever met. Good pay. Pretty good benefits and 3 weeks vacation the day you start. The cafeteria serves excellent food for a great price. They were always giving us gifts.

Cons

Swing shift was the major reason I quit. Every week is a different shift. When on 1st and 3rd, you work 7 days with Saturday and Sunday being 12 hour shifts. The week between 3rd and 1st is an off week(Monday 7;30am- Saturday 7am) but I was always catching up on sleep.

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.
