Pros

Bonus, benefits, and growth opportunities.

Cons

No one knows what they are doing. Leadership is a joke. No one gets along and the team members know. The Leadership team is not on the same page. The tactics used to coach, and correct actions, or even the probationary conversations are different manager to manager. The directors don't care about the managers. They prioritize the supervisors and wants of the team but not the managers. the focus is never on the growing problem, which is now associate behavior. I don't feel lead and no one else does either.

Pros

I’ve been at Mars (Yorkville site) for about three months as a Quality Systems Senior Specialist, and so far it’s been a great experience. Everyone has been genuinely friendly, welcoming, and willing to help. The culture feels very supportive—people want to see you succeed and are quick to share knowledge and offer guidance. My manager has been amazing and is truly invested in my growth. She’s helped set clear expectations, encouraged development, and provided the tools and support I need to be successful.

Cons

None so far—still new, but my experience has been very positive.
