BRUNELLO CUCINELLI

Mr. Cucinelli probably does not know about the plight of his staff in the US. The company in the US was run by inexperienced CEO, CFO, Managing Partners… etc, etc. Corporate team was recruited by an inner circle of incapable higher managers who befriend each other for power. They have only two employees in their so called Human Resources unit. Employees do not have any say nor they get to see what has been decided for them by corporate. Changes were always last minute and abrupt without any planning, resulting in operational chaos at store level that front-end staff have to clean up.
Control is what they pursue, so employees are trained to be silent for fear of job loss. Corporate visits are always non-productive that teach nothing but a demonstration of authority and suppression. Depending on what location you work, your nightmare can be magnified with an incompetent store manager who is threatened by talents. My work experience in Southern CA left me traumatized with so much unwanted personal attacks. I refused to trade my rights to sue and turned down their severance offer to keep my mouth shut. This company is full of dirty, insecure and self-pity higher managers who will gang up to attack the most innocent staff.

The only thing I learned is resilience training. You were exposed to so much injustice and unfair treatment during your employment so you will not do the same to your employees when you are in management position one day. Your unpleasant experience train you to be a better manager with a better job in a better company. The best part is you get to realize you are a better person than your boss, and the boss of your boss!

Advice to Management
Educate yourselves to gain more confidence. Your insecurity does not give you a legitimate reason to mistreat people. Do not exercise your authority inappropriately just to hurt and destroy. No matter what level you are, you stay where you are, but staff who have talents will rise above you.

Overall, it was a disappointing experience. The company mission and said core values for human dignity, integrity & respect are a complete contradiction to how I was treated here. HR was not supportive, extremely unprofessional and micromanaged every situation inefficiently without properly investigating issues. They need to read the employee handbook, educate themselves on management training manuals, company policies/procedures and understand state laws before making horrible, difficult decisions. 

The accounting department was plagued by a supervisor who frequently lied and contributed to a culture of uncertainty. This dishonesty made it incredibly difficult to trust the information and decisions being made, often leaving the  team feeling flustered and confused. The lack of clear direction from management led to constant disruptions and made it hard to keep up with the necessary tasks. It's clear that a more honest and consistent approach would have made a significant difference in the work environment. 

The management was painfully incompetent, and their disregard for employee well-being. You'll be assigned a mountain of tasks with near impossible to meet deadlines, forcing you to say goodbye to your personal life and work long hours. The terrible decisions they constantly make made the already unbearable experience working of here even more difficult. If you want to keep your sanity intact I suggest you avoid this company. 

Working here was such an exhausting and stressful experience for me. Workloads were overwhelming because of the company's mission to provide quality products. While that is indeed admirable , they strive to achieve it while ignoring the well-being of their employees. Management was incredibly incompetent as well. being more of a detriment to us than a source of support.

This place is more similar to a circus than a company because of the incompetent clowns that act as management. They have unrealistic expectations for employees, lack any real communication skills and often give conflicting instructions, and resort to verbally abusing employees when they fail to meet their impossible demands. 

The worst part of being here was the sarcastic attitude from upper management. They acted like they were doing you a favor by simply existing in the same room. And let's not forget the creeps who thought they could get away with their irritating comments. Any time you need actual help, you'd be met with condescending nonsense. Honestly, it was like pulling teeth trying to get any real answers from the people who were supposed to be in charge. 

If you are reading this and considering joining Brunello Cucinelli, BEWARE. Life will be not good if you join this company. Absolutely foolish management. The founders want to have control over everything and leave no space for other people to do their work. Even worse, they actively fired several dedicated employees for no apparent reason. Overall, I would caution anyone considering employment at this company. It’s not worth sacrificing your mental and emotional well-being.

The place was absolutely exhausting, with an unhinged atmosphere that left everyone on edge. My supervisor seemed completely inactive, never offering guidance when it was needed most, which only made things worse. The constant disorganization felt like an never-ending mess, and it was impossible to get anything done in that environment. Overall, the lack of structure and support drained any motivation to keep going.

It's practically impossible to get anything done here because of how terrible communication is around here! Instead of telling you what they want to do, management expects you to read their minds, and place all the blame on you when you unsurprisingly fail to meet their demands!
