Pros

I temped for a little over a year and got in as a permanent employee this month. I plan to stay for the rest of my life, its that good here. The work environment and the people at the Augusta, GA plant are top tier. The pay is the highest of any plant I've seen for every job title posted. The benefits here are great, and the company itself is aggressively growing in the candy market, which is great for longevity. I highly recommend working for ferrara.

Cons

There is a lot of overtime required when production ramps up, which may be the only drawback to working here or any high output plant really.

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
