Pluspunten

I've worked at Mars/Wrigley for 17 years now. Over the years I've been given a ton of opportunity to grow, develop, and learn. I've worked with some of the nicest people and have had managers who genuinely care about me as a person. The compensation and benefits are great as well as work-life balance.

Minpunten

Recently Mars announced it was going to combine the Wrigley and Mars Chocolate segment into 1 segment. There's been a lot ambiguity in the process (9 months since the announcement we don't know what our new jobs will be or where the new location will be). In addition, they creating a new Global organization, there's a large power struggle between the global and local teams. With that decision making is extremely slow and I spend most of my time managing ego's instead of getting work done.

Pluspunten

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.

Minpunten

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