Do not treat temp employee well and take advantage of them. Make certain promises that they end up taking back. Dont think that this is a company you will spend multiple years with, you can do better.

CCC at Ferrara is the place to be!

Pros

Leadership in Cookies, Cones and Crusts is unparalleled! My review is based specifically on CCC. My Executives were flexible, caring, understanding, direct, personable, extremely intelligent and gave real time feedback. This was invaluable to me as a single working mom with a young one. Personally, I enjoyed everyone in CCC. What an amazing group of individuals!!! It was disheartening to read some of these poor reviews, so I had to add my two cents. Are expectations high? Yes! Are they unattainable? Absolutely not. Do you need to pivot? Yes! Do you need to work hard? Yes! Is the work rewarding? Yes! This is a work hard, play hard atmosphere (imo) and I loved it there! Office at OPO is gorgeous. Is Ferrara perfect? No, however no company is. I would 100% recommend to a friend if there was an opening in the CCC division.

Cons

Health Insurance needs to be better.
