Pros

There are some really good people that still work there. People try to help each other as much as they can and the work challenges you to be better. The office is really nice and we have transitioned to a 3 day in the office and 2 at home which is a nice balance. Great place if you live to work.

Cons

The culture is no longer the same. There are a lot of people that are burned out from all of the work and the very tight deadlines. They don't adequately staff and the employees must get the work done no matter how long it takes which negatively impacts work life balance. There is no support structure, you simply have to figure out how you get things done with little to no support and you better hope you are able to make it happen otherwise you will get viewed as an under performer. Upper management is constantly putting you in a position to fail and they don't recognize their shortcomings. It's some how always your fault. No accountability. The mood in the office has started to become toxic. The energy people use to have is pretty much gone and people are really burned out and just trying to get work done and leave. It used to be a really great place to work and collaborate with other employees. The company recognizes the burn out because they have all these seminars about dealing with burn out but they don't do anything to change. They keep applying the pressure and a lot of people are leaving.

Ferrara Candy Company Response

​We appreciate you taking the time to share this thoughtful review. Fostering a workplace where team members feel supported and have opportunities to grow their careers are fundamental aspects of our culture, but overworking employees and burnout are not intended to be part of this. We take these concerns seriously and are continuously working behind the scenes to resolve this matter.​ As Ferrara expands domestically and internationally, we recognize workloads may fluctuate and increase individual responsibilities as a result. We encourage employees, including yourself, to communicate stressful situations directly with their managers so they can make our leadership teams aware.​ Please reach out to FerraraReviews@ferrarausa.com with any further feedback to consider as we adapt and innovate best practices.

Pros

Great in-office perks, good people, strong opportunities for growth

Cons

Very hectic/chaotic day-to-day environment. Sheer amount of work to be done is extremely overwhelming, teams are not properly staffed, and prioritization of projects is lacking. Everyone seems stretched very thin and burnt out.
