International Exposure, but Poor Management Culture
Pros
-Strong industrial heritage and global presence. -Opportunities to gain experience in different countries. -Great learning environment for young Italian technical highschool graduates.
Cons
-Serious management and communication issues at nearly all levels. -Promotions are often based on local (Friulian) connections rather than merit or competence. The headquarters in Buttrio centralizes all decisions, limiting innovation and flexibility in other branches. -A culture of silence — employees tend to stay quiet rather than speak up about problems to keep their safe chairs and min salaries. -Outdated work policies: during COVID, employees were forced to work from the office while the entire country worked remotely, and even today, remote work is not allowed (local managers do not even know real meaning of remote work) -Not a suitable environment for university or master’s degree graduates who expect a modern, international, and merit-based workplace.
