Pros
flexibility. Note: you must set your own boundaries or you will be run into the ground with work and end up working nights and weekends. Work/Life balance is great if you establish these boundaries. It will be terrible if you don't. bonuses, pension, base pay is average Overall leadership at the global level and Mars family leadership is very good Get good at building interpersonal relationships fast and you will do well. If this isn't you, don't even consider this company.
Kontras
Annual pay increases are equivalent to cost of living adjustments. There is no such thing as a significant bump in pay. Internal promotions are nearly impossible - the business chooses external candidates a significant majority of the time signaling a lack of internal grooming and maybe a belief that the grass is greener outside of Mars? Sr management disconnected from the people who do the work and at times have their people in fear of them. Sr management willing to let terrific talent leave and makes excuses for why he/she left Petcare US leadership is very poor and out of touch - it is due to be turned over within 6 months per historical trend.
