Pros

Hard working team. Collaboration and quality work even when requested at the drop of a hat. Team is agile and lean doing the work of 2-3 associates. Top talent.

Cons

Long hours. Zero work life balance and not encouraged from senior leaders. Do as I say not as I do mentality. Leadership needs to live the principals and they do not. Financial systems are very outdated and if you want quality analysis you must invest in systems to foster growth. All data is kept in excel which is a nightmare.

Pros

Good benefits and nice winter garden

Cons

No respect for employees. Factory mentality by instituting badging in like a time clock. Lunch reduced to 30 min but nothing accessible within 30 min except cafeteria. Location is horrific; continuous traffic bottlenecks. Many managers practice micromanagement and favoritism. HR is cutthroat and treats good employees disrespectfully. Employee concerns are not fairly represented. Mars principles solely in control.

Pros

Great benefits, always fun to see the new products. The company as a whole is a great company with lots of opportunity for movement, both up and across the world. Can take your animal to work with you!

Cons

The corporate office does not have anyone who handles "HR" issues. Lots of office politics due to the open office. Also, very slow to change with everyone being terrified of making a decision or change that goes wrong. The company is STILL using Lotus Notes in 2016. The company also does not believe in work-life balance.
