Pros

Amazing core values, if the company could only keep true to them. The CEO has a good heart and he really does want this company to have a positive impact on people's lives. The product itself is does speak to that. Like any product, it has areas it can improve on, but it's a solid product and the team behind building it is incredible. Most employees work really hard and are really great people.

Cons

1. The culture is incredibly toxic. This company is at war with itself. I want to emphasize the difference between company core values and culture. The core values want to be great, but the internal culture is truly toxic. There are a lot of employees in operations that don't last much more than a year. If you are part of the favorite group, you have a chance of making it a little longer, but eventually most people will burn out. 2. I realize this sounds coo coo for coco puffs, but this is an emotionally abusive company. 3. Work life "harmony" doesn't exist. 4. Employees are not valued. 5. No matter how hard you work, how good you are at what you do, how well you communicate with leadership and/or clients, you will always be a failure. 6. Leadership has massive ego issues. 7. Leadership is hypocritical. 8. Clients, usually attorneys that know how to be mean, will almost always be escalated and Implementation Consultants are on the front line of that wrath. Rather than supporting staff and actually facing the issue, leadership throws a temp bandaid on and may just provide the client a credit. 9. S**t rolls downhill. I could go on, but the core issue is that culture is toxic. Buyer beware! Operation leadership has some significant core issues. They need to face their own failures before any change in culture will even begin to happen. There are certain levels of leadership that are egotistical and arrogant, and this means that a solution to the culture issues is not really within sight at this time. This company will implode if leadership doesn't make changes within themselves.

Pros

Full remote, "people first" AI adoption, and cutting edge technology. One of the best technilogy orgs I have been a part of. Very innovation friendly- new ideas are welcomed! Generous time off and flexible working environment.

Cons

No bonuses, but the higher base pay makes up for it. There are growing pains where some people get overloaded, but management addresses those areas quickly.

Pros

The product is pretty good and I like the swag/merch

Cons

The BDR department has taken a downward spiral since I started at Filevine. The VP makes inappropriate comments and acts like he is better than everyone else. The director noticeably plays favorites, gives events to the same people even if we earn our spot and we often wonder what he does all day. The rest of the managers do the best they can working under those 2. The only manager who helped their team get to quota was recently kicked out, leaving a gap in the department and leaving the other managers to pick up the slack. Everyone is burned out and management doesnt seem to care, they just keep micromanaging and shoving higher and higher numbers down our throats we are never going to hit. We get punished if we ask for time off and don't bother calling in sick or you will have to show proof. If we dont do it their way then you will never get promoted and Im proof of that. There is ZERO flexibility even if you have appointments or outside things happening. It feels like a prison at times. Do yourself a favor and look for another way to get into Sales. I was told how great it was to work at Filevine and I have not seen that yet. No wonder everyone quits.
