Pros

Family-owned business not exposed to markets’s risks. Company’s products are cool. Benefits and compensation schemes ok. Multi-cultural exposure and some travel for manager positions.

Cons

Workload. Old school management « a l’ancienne », pretending to transform but not changing leaders, mostly interested by securing their personal strategy rather than the true customers benefits. Old ways of working! pretending diversity and inclusion not translated into acts in France. Biaises in the performance ratings. An old organization that overuses engagement to reduce overheads and make people work like crazy with little recognition.

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.
