Pros

- People are friendly and kind - Internal mobility is encouraged and is very seamless, no in-fighting over people moving from one department to another - Work/life balance is good, most managers encourage associates to take time off and ensure that the balance is good

Cons

- The org overall is very resistant to change. This is beginning to change now with a lot of new leadership from outside Mars but the business has years of work to catch up to competitors - If you've been at Mars for a while, pay is not competitive - Decision making is painstakingly slow and any decisions made are often re-litigated which is exhausting and contributes to moving at a slow pace
