Avantages

There is nothing positive about mars, this is not the right company for you! Stay away as there are many other companies in Slough

Inconvénients

Be warned. Mars has a very peculiar culture that allows management to bully their staff. You are expected to work overtime without any additional pay. Projects are never finished as priorities are changed on a daily basis. You will then get the blame in your annual review. Only those that are friends with the management team get promoted. Young people do not stay in that company, most leave within 2 years or so. I would never recommend this company and urge anyone to stay away. It’s simply to worth the stress. You will be undervalued, over worked and pressured. I’ve seen grown adult men cry due to the overloaded pressures of the job. The smart ones leave and this is my intention.

Avantages

- Company car (fuel card, insurance, etc) - Good benefits - Great brand exposure/understanding of CPG sales at the retail level - Annual sales meeting is fun, but exhausting - Simple job

Inconvénients

- Micromanaged by leadership (EVERYTHING is tracked) - Extremely repetitive work (not much freedom in creating your schedule, same tasks over and over, etc.) - Dealing with retail management. If you don't have respectful store managers, good luck. A lot of your KPI's are out of your control and your experience relies on your store. - As DOZENS of other people have said, this is a merchandising job - not sales. You are responsible for placing product on the sales floor after consulting with the store (basically asking management who only views you as free manual labor). There is no commission/incentive for producing positive results. - SEASONS: this is the reason why you have this job if you're working with the Walmart channel. You have unrealistic expectations set from leadership to pack out hundreds of heavy cases of candy each holiday season after begging store management for space to place it. Most of the stores' back rooms are a complete mess and a lot of your product is inaccessible. Long days are expected with no additional pay. - Work/life balance: It is frowned upon to work the bare minimum of 40 hours/week. Your stores get backed up while you're on PTO. Overall: an okay role This isn't a bad job by any means, you just need to know what the role entails before taking this job. You need to relocate for any future opportunities within the company.
