Unstable - No investment in employees

Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

- Great people to work with in local office - Company does give back to the community - Flexibility to work remotely

Cons

- Constant turnover with leadership team - Cost cutting has reduced workforce so employees are expected to do more with less - Employees invest time and effort into the company but the company does not invest in its employees. Example, minimal raises (3% or less on average), no expanded training beyond new hire training, bonus structure poor, not many opportunities for career advancement) - Cost cuts prevent leadership team to make decisions to invest in teams or businesses that could increase revenue to the company - Benefit cost increases so more out of pocket expense or deduction from salary - Constant unstable environment due to the amount of layoffs that occur - Culture is much different now than previous years. There is poor communication from executives, no feeling of an overall "team" environment, employees feel like just a $ not as if company values them - Leadership not willing to invest in making improved process or efficiencies unless it is just cutting headcount. Employees spend a lot of time trying to fix internal issues rather than doing their assigned job

Once a nice place to work

Pros

Good pay and better than average benefits

Cons

Company was purchased by Carlyle Group, and since then it's been a steady decline. Upper Management doesn't know how to capitalize with products. Management is more concerned with short term than long term success Upper Management is constantly changing over the last few years.

Pros

Standard benefits like unlimited time off, 401k matching, decent insurance programs. If you like playing politics and can get in the in-crowd with one of the favorite-playing managers, it could be a pretty cushy job.

Cons

If only it were possible to give this .... place... 0 stars. Senior leadership turnover is ridiculously high, resulting in no vision or comprehensible roadmap whatsoever. Technology is dated, code base is a disaster, and engineers aren't allowed to work on meaningful improvements since management is always trying to cover its rear end and make it look like their team is producing something useful. Literally every single demo I have ever sat through is 100% fake, the team involved wasn't given the resources to implement the solution properly, but they just need to pull the wool over the eyes of their investors and customers. They are always hiring but at the same time laying people off, then complaining they lack the skill sets that they just got rid of through their lay offs. VP level and higher show no empathy or caring for engineering staff and cares only about penny-pinching, even about things that will be detrimental to talent retention and morale. We used to have meaningful peer recognition programs in place, but after being told this program put us "over budget", we are no longer allowed to use it. The "old boys club" is alive and well in this place, with managers only promoting their personal friends and laying off those they aren't best buddies with. With the chaos inside and the slow decline in market share for Veritas's outdated and poorly coded products, I don't see this company having a bright future.
