Pluspunten
Started at the very bottom job level , had opportunities to advance over my entire career, which I did. Spent 34 years there working for one of the Finest Families in the world. I think it would have been quite hard to find a better place to work. The Mars Culture and the Five Principals of Mars guide its Associates in private life as well as in professional life. This company really cares about people, family, and the futures of their Associates. I basically grew up there, made tons of friends, raised a family, took advantage of all the financial benefits they offered, and was able to retire comfortably at the age of 57. Where else could those opportunities be achieved ? I rate this company A+........any day!!!
Minpunten
One downside was in the early years, was having to work the swing shifts and missing lots of friends and families gatherings, and parties. For me, the commute was a stretch sometimes... I drove an hour each way to work there, but as time went by, I started to cherish my ride, and considered it "my Time". After a while I learned to relax, give myself plenty of time to get there, and enjoy listening to my music and the radio.
