Pros

An open, engaging and fun place to work where everyone is encouraged to do their best. There is no shortage of interesting challenges for those willing and growth is always encouraged, both professionally and personally. Line-management is an important successful criteria for those fortunate enough to have responsibilities for others and this build a great working environment, as well as teams. Everyone is encouraged to do their best and are rewarded based on their individual performance, not just experience. Socially, who else can lay claim to zero land-fill waste and 100% renewal energy usage for many of our plants. Our people (Associates) and our Planet - that is what Mars is all about and this is reflected in the Mutuality Principle which we all live and work by. This is shown in the 2016 award for one of the "Best Place to Work" - our first ever entry too.

Cons

Slough is not the most attractive of places as it is a huge industrial estate although surrounding areas are beautiful and green. However as primarily an industrial site there are limited facilities nearby such as eating/drinking places unless you are willing to drive. Up until the last few years Mars have been deliberately keeping a "low profile" to the outside world. However, there has been a distinct shift and we are now much more open and visible.

Pros

I learned a lot of different things. Safety, food safety, how to make pet food.

Cons

Flexible hour's management wants the employees to do their job and your's.
