Pros

Everyone is very understanding. Really enjoy the product and people. Everyone is a member of my family. It does not get better than this.

Cons

Too many carbs! Just kidding. I really can not think of one bad thing about this oustanding company. It is the number one producer of pasta in my native Italy.

Pros

Great flexibility and work life balance. Great people and business.

Cons

Not much room for career advancement. A lot of decisions are made by the headquarters in Italy and don't always make sense for the US.
