LATI received the Great Place to Work certification based on the results of a survey conducted among its employees both in Italy and abroad.

Furthermore, employees stated that they feel proud to work for the company and believe that customers would value the service provided. The best results of the survey were obtained in the areas of Pride, Respect and Credibility.
