      Pros

      Mars has a great work/life balance (at least within my team) that is unmatched. I feel like I can take a walk or run to the store during the day and not miss a beat with work! There are some great line managers who truly care about you, and there is an annual survey that is taken to rate employee morale and trust. Each manager reviews the annonymus scores and makes a plan to improve issues.

      Cons

      For lower-leveled employees, there isn't a clear path for growth within P&O (human resources) and it's very disengaging to have to where to go after your first role. Upper-level management bounces around to new roles but moving up from a T1/T2 role is so difficul.

      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.
