Pros

Good basic stable of brands to represent. The people working in all areas are very exceptional at what they do and very talented.

Cons

Top down management. Produce or perish....family not genuinely engaged in company culture as they llike people to believe. Turnover is frequent and everyone is expendable. Not a company to look at for a long term career. Just look at all of the talented people with exemplary careers that have been terminated or moved on. Just ask...

We appreciate your feedback but regret your opinion of Delicato as a whole. We conduct round-tables, culture surveys, and exit interviews to stay on top of our working climate which we consider a top priority. This is not feedback we typically receive from folks leaving the organization and will trust that anyone interested in joining Delicato will allow us to talk about the positive organization that we have, and form their own opinion.

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.
