Pluspunten
I was attracted to Mars for its purpose-driven leadership and principles. People were first priority and learning and development was world-class. The family connection ensured that accountants didn't take the lead in thinking about how the company should progress and kept the focus on long-term; rather than short-term performance.
Minpunten
There has been a huge shift in leadership in the last few years. The leadership is more 'command/control' and their has been a focus on acquisition, without focus on the foundations that are required to support new business (people, leadership, capability, infrastructure). Senior leadership are holding onto roles and benefits rather than doing what is best for the company and it is very difficult to progress because of constant mindless organisational changes.
