Pros

Wrigley is incredibly strong at executing tactics and consistently meets the task in front of them. They have good benefits and pay and have great career mobility. There is great lateral mobility across functions.

Cons

Wrigley can be very reactionary due to their lack of any strategic vision. The have not yet embraced the luxury of being a family owned company. When times gets challenging senior management revert to overworking associates. It is very typical to need to work on a majority of holidays and weekends at all levels of the organization.

Pros

Working at Symbioscience has been one of the best work places that I have had. From a professional standpoint the training and development by senior management has been excellent. Collaboration and teamwork are a cornerstone of our work environment. The organizational structure of the company allows you to be able to have a one on one meeting with senior managers without having to make an appointment or go through the leadership structure ranks.

Cons

If you are not good with dealing with ambiguity then Symbioscience may not be the place for you to work.
