Pros

Good people, very interesting products, someone very skilled, many learning opportunities, international customers. It's quite easy to change between different roles to try almost every position and work. Many travel opportunities if you want that.

Cons

Low salary. Career level and gain improvement impossible. Key positions reserved to people that is introduced by or it's closely related to politicians, admirals, rich entrepreneurs... Absolutely no meritocracy. To enter you have to stay for 3 years minimum under a job agency with no guarantees to be hired. Someone wasted even 8 years in this condition.

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.
