Pros

Not only has the company grown immensely since I joined, but I have also grown more than I imagined possible! While the flexibility is unheard of, things still get done Ferrara Fast. Leadership is open to feedback and will do what it takes to make you happy. I wanted a well-rounded career and the opportunity to learn about other functional areas of the business - that's what I got at Ferrara. Plus, our new office is incredible - I have an ergonomic automatic deck, two monitors, free access to an incredible gym and as many types of coffee and healthy snacks I could ever want. Who knew I could be so happy to go to work?

Cons

Leadership is working to improve the have a more formal mentoring/feedback/development program. That being said, you won't find a leader who isn't open to sitting down with you to chat and give advice!

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
