Take a tour of the Mars Chocolate office, where life-size M&M's greet you at the door with free candy

According to employees at Mars Chocolate - a segment of the $33 billion Mars candy, pet care, and beverage company - the free Snickers and M&Ms aren't even the best part of their job.
"Mars Chocolate is a truly unique place to work," one associate told Business Insider during a visit to the Hackettstown, New Jersey, office in May 2016. "Everyone is passionate about the work they are doing - and the people are incredible. We are one big family and that's not something you get everywhere."
Mars - which was ranked on Fortune's "100 Best Companies To Work For" list in 2013, 2014, 2015, and 2016 - employs 72,000 people (who they call "associates") worldwide and over 25,000 in the US. About 16,000 of those global associates work for Mars Chocolate.
