Pros

The culture here is truly fantastic (although the new CEO may change the current culture). The actual workers are amazing people and I truly feel as if they encompass what BV tries to be. Great benefits Great culture Casual dress Open, colorful layout prevents you from feeling like you work in a library WFH ability and the freedom to work in focus rooms or on couches for comfort

Cons

Middle management. Especially a team led by a particular woman are very clique-ish and exclusive to people of color. Perception is everything so if the wrong person doesn't like you, your credibility is shot. This team is led by a woman with no previous management experience, is unprofessional, disrespectful, and literally curses out people she doesn't like. How is she employed? Because BV's leadership has a good old boy club who takes care of their own. Stagnant positions. No real room for growth. You'll find yourself wasting brain power doing the exact same thing every day. Heavy Micro management Below average pay when compared to market values Lack of foresight by leadership. An example of this is a new role was stood up in February 2018 only to be offshored in April 2018 bc it provided no value. Lack of ability to prioritize projects. No efficiency Diversity is not practiced at BV. New CEO is rude and doesn't consider the people in his decisions.
