Itaúsa is a Brazilian holding company that controls several companies active in areas such as the financial and real estate sectors; industries including wood panels, pottery and metal; health; chemicals; and fashion. The main companies that Itaúsa controls are Itaú Unibanco, Duratex, and Alpargatas.
Itausa lacks of good leaders, and professional opportunities to grow are limited due to the size of the company structure, according to a former employee at glassdoor.com
"Not against the institution, just the lack of good leaders. There are not many opportunities for professional growth due to the size of the structure of a holding company."
