Family business for Mars family, not for yours - Recensione dipendente - Consumer Insights presso Mars

While they are a "family" company, they really don't care so much about your family. You are expected to work long hours, travel frequently and participate in "mandatory fun" activities that conflict with getting any work done, causing you to work longer to get your work done. While there are great opportunities for regular associates to move up the Mars ladder, having specialized education (graduate degrees) is seen as a bad thing and you are discouraged from saying you have specialized education. In many positions this means you will not get a promotion or increase in pay appropriate for you level of education.
