Pros

Candy is overall a fun commodity. Getting to see and taste new products prior to distribution was a fun thing to do. Good pay and good benefits. A lot of good people.

Cons

The company is made from a merger with a company that was made of many different mergers. Without a power brand the marketing side was different from the major brands from the standpoint that smaller opportunities were in the mix but timelines were extremely compressed. The company is bringing together different cultures and finding a new forward looking personality. That sometimes causes angst.

Pros

Iconic brands Capable coworkers Cool office, and good location Real opportunities to build tangible experience

Cons

Very cut throat / unforgiving culture Poor work / life balance Poor IT systems Unrealistic deadlines, “Ferrara Fast” High employee turnover Most work is churn at the corporate level, does not feed into proper decisions / strategy execution at the executive level Short term performance management, worse than Private Equity companies. Week to week performance reviews of the business, leading to substandard results in market and serious risk of long term underperformance
