We don't hire staff, we recruit family members!
För oss är det av avgörande vikt att underhålla starka och mogna relationer med våra kollegor, som vi stolt kallar för Basta-familjen. Vi inser att välmående medarbetare sprider glädje, välbefinnande och motivation, vilket vi aktivt främjar genom tydlig kommunikation som arbetsgivare, närvarande ledarskap, rättvisa arbetsvillkor och en djup samhörighetskänsla inom vår familj. Vi tror på att vi är i detta tillsammans.
Visionen med Basta är att skapa italiensk restauranghistoria i Sverige, där har vi satt ribban. Här är vi medvetna om att vår tillväxt måste ske i den takt som tillåter oss att bevara den autentiska kvaliteten i matlagningen och den djupt rotade familjekänslan inom Basta-familjen.
