Pros

People (Mid level managers) Decent salary Brands

Cons

- Poor and phony leadership - Absolutely no work-life balance - Antiquated way of doing business - Unreasonable expectations/workload - Lack of structure and processes -Chaotic -True definition of Insanity - Treat employees poorly and condescendingly -Anarchy style, expect you to bow down to those based on title - Lacks vision and strategy - Behind in innovation - Reactionary style - Inefficient -Top heavy with VPs and no lower /middle level mgrs that need to get job done - Claim to be “entrepreneurial” but that’d require all working together, and getting things done (not the case here) -Italians have this demeanor that women are beneath them - Adapt to US culture vs bringing traditional Italian ways that don’t work to the US - Walk the talk, as much as they say “People Centricity” is their top pillar it’s all a front. They all treat people how they feel like it.

Pros

Great products. Good holiday schedule. Pretty good work-life balance. Base compensation and bonus pretty good. Stability (little to no layoffs)

Cons

Bad management. No perks whatsoever beyond base and bonus - no profit sharing, not even matching charitable contributions. 401(k) company match is low. Favoritism, unequal workload and resource distribution, and major accountability issues. Transparency issues.
