Pros

HR, PCA, and Environmental are very good people. Travel is reimbursed, and they don't beat you up when flights and hotels are more than planned. If you like to travel, you will like this company, there is tons of opportunity for travel. You eat what you kill, if you are a good salesperson, you can pretty much do your own thing.

Cons

Long hours, constant reminders that you should be doing more. There are small groups with a lot of power. If you are not in the groups, its not good for you. It seemed like it was a regional thing. Weird stuff where some people sit with nothing to do, while others are drowning with too much work. A lot of people I met, were never sure if they were doing well or in trouble. There is significant apprehension about potential fallout out if you are not busy. During down time, many people seemed worried for their jobs, even though they didn't do sales, and had no control over the volume. Some of the things said, didn't seem to line up with what happened. Many people felt like the message was just another story. I saw some things go as said, and some things not, it was kind of strange.

Pros

Remote work, revised PTO and benefits recently.

Cons

The Vertex Companies talks a lot about performance-based pay, but the follow-through isn’t there. I exceeded expectations, had strong client relationships, and solid support from leadership—yet the merit increase felt like a slap in the face. When you’re told compensation is tied to performance but see little difference between average and high performers, it raises real concerns about how employees are valued. The company appears far more focused on protecting margins and pleasing shareholders than rewarding the people driving the work. It’s disappointing, because strong performance should be recognized in a meaningful way—not minimized.
