A Great Place With Great People

Pros

A Great Place With Great People! We live the 5 Principles, which makes for a pretty good corporate culture. People are smart, we work hard, and most people are friendly and helpful. At MARS we care about both the "what" and the "how", how you do things is just as important as what you do and accomplish.

Cons

Lots of work because teams are too lean, there needs to be more team/employee engagement, bigger budgets are needed.

Sales management

Pros

Strong global brands. Strong industry presence. Engaging associates. Slightly innovative, willing to work with retailers to collaborate, partner, invest in win win outcomes.

Cons

Work life balance is non existent. Heavy work loads and not enough head count to support sales teams. Upper management hires outside consultants to come in and reduce management spans/layers, piling more responsibility on the sales managers. Also only a chosen few will get the opportunity to move to upper management, and the majority of sales managers can only look for lateral moves.
