Good knowledge capital sabotaged by old-fashioned management and negative work culture - Recensione dipendente - Controller presso Maccaferri

Sure, companionship, good prestige, good opportunity

I don't have any downside to mention

The people in the office are the good and helpful

Leadership is abysmal. Italy controls things and the local president is a puppet for Italy. At one point they were almost 2 years late on paying bonuses. Women are treated MUCH differently than men. This isn't just anecdotal. If you come from Italy you are treated very differently, like you have skills that Americans don't have; which is unfair to local colleagues. Witnessed racism first-hand several times by someone in leadership and complained. Nothing was done because they had sales coming in. They have no loyalty to the people that are loyal to them. Watch your backs. More concerned about the perception of the company than making any changes that would positively affect their employees. They greatly underpay. They will spend more money on lawyers for not doing the right thing than they do on promoting or growing the right employees. 4 things to be "successful" there: 1. Never go against their underperforming norm. Stay status quo 2. Be a yes-man 3. Be Italian 4. Be an underperforming Italian
