Pros

Tremendous growth over the past 10 years that has earned the respect of the Industry. Consistent track record of introducing new, innovative brands. Fantastic family ownership that is visible throughout the company. Good people to work with that can mentor and grow your career.

Cons

Like many companies that experienced significant growth, some of the systems and processes did not keep up. The company has made significant investments over the past 5 years in people, processes and systems to take us from 1 million cases, and ready us for 10 million, and all around best-in-class resources.

Pros

I am almost 6 months into my time with Delicato and it's been amazing to be a part of this organization. From the start of the recruitment process, through onboarding, and fast forward to now - it's clear to see that leaders here care about their people.

Cons

None that comes to mind.

Pros

They have a generous employee discount.

Cons

Delicato runs on fear and demands conformity. Rather than admit they have no idea what they are doing in running certain "new-to-them" areas of the industry, and seek internal wisdom and counsel of those who have been for years, they choose to rely on "consultants" who have no interest beyond lining their own pockets. Management within departments is purely top-down, and any attempts to innovate or be creative are shut down. Company refuses to provide tools or solutions for people to do their actual jobs, but squash work-arounds, instead prioritizing "figure it out for yourself" as a philosophy, until you actually do.

We strive to create an environment that balances operational discipline with room for innovation and independent thinking. Expectations and structure are important in a winery of our scale, but so is listening to our people and improving how work gets done. Feedback like this is taken seriously as we continue to refine how we lead, invest in our teams, and support meaningful progress across the organization.
