Pros

- Extremely fast paced and energetic culture. - All hands on deck mentality, teams are willing to jump in and help achieve our goals. - Very agile, everyone adapts quickly and competently to change and adversity.

Cons

- Ferrero (parent company to Ferrara) has recently assumed ownership of the Nestle confections business, which will operate under Ferrara leadership. This has opened many selling doors, but has made some of the day to day work more complex. Like any acquisition, things will be messy, but with a leadership team that embraces change and workforce feedback I am not at all concerned with the current growing pains.

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
