Pros

The software I worked with specifically was AMAZING. There are not enough good things I can say about it. Most of my team member were so great to work with and kept up the pace with their workload.

Cons

There are so many now compared to when I first started. Filevine had such amazing potential, but within the last year, everything has taken a turn for the worst. While yes, Filevine often promotes from within, before resigning I saw SEVERAL people who were already in management positions get an ADDITIONAL management position for a completely different team. It made it feel impossible to move up in any way. This leads me to my next point. Trying to get a promotion was near impossible. After spending almost 2 whole years there and asking countless times, I was still overlooked. The company chose to give the same people additional management/director roles, instead of promoting someone else. This left a lot of teams lacking in so many areas, especially the Support Team. The support team was so well designed for Filevine as a product, but for the other products the company provided, it didn’t matter. After escalating client after client and being reached out to on a day to day basis for support related questions, the upper management STILL DID NOTHING TO CHANGE THE SUPPORT TEAM FOR THE BETTER. Filevine will always be there for itself and not for the systems/softwares it acquires. The company did NOTHING to try to keep me, and I have a strong feeling it had to do with money. It seemed like they were eager to let me leave, and after everything I had done to make sure my clients were taken care of, it felt like a huge slap in the face. Filevine had certain ideals at the start of when I first joined. In the most recent all-hands meeting, not a single one was mentioned. You could tell by the meeting and what everyone was saying that Filevine was going to take a turn for the worst this year. The company is now stopping all focus on keeping clients happy and they’re now only focused on money and how to cut costs. During the last department wide meeting, we were told to no longer go above and beyond for the clients, that things were becoming even more limited, and to stop all “white glove treatment.” This will be what breaks the company.

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.
