Products are fascinating Lots of clever people work here. Feels like a family. Truly complex interesting projects Good holiday allowance (25days min growing to 27) +12 days Flexi. Flexibility around work hours/some home working to suit family. Modernising quickly ref well-being, communications, diversity, flexibility etc. New MD promising (putting people first, improving culture). Lots of training on offer. Very secure job, many people work here their whole career, lots of opportunity for variety, international assignments if you want.

Cons

More work than capacity can cope with currently. Cumbersome processes, difficult to get things done.

Pros

There is not one pro I can think of.

Cons

The culture is extremely toxic and divisive. There is a clear preference shown toward Italian employees over U.S. employees, which creates an unfair and frustrating work environment. Communication is often unprofessional, with frequent yelling, finger-pointing, and disrespectful comments. Management has failed to establish clear roles and responsibilities, leading to constant confusion and conflict between employees. Engineering leadership appears heavily driven by favoritism and routinely treats employees with a lack of professionalism and respect.
