Pros
- Several teammates are truly intelligent, empathetic, and personable. Those are the individuals that kept me at Veho for the duration I was there and this review is not geared toward those people. - Remote work is nice for some. - Pay is typically higher than your average company, but that can be a double-edged sword.
Cons
Leadership is unreasonable with requests and expectations at many junctions. Personal examples include: - When I let my manager know that the only way an issue would have been resolved faster is if I had worked over a federal holiday, the response I received was "This is a 24/7 company." - When I volunteered to assist with one portion of a project after the original owner of said project left the company, I was then given responsibility for that entire arm of the business that the project lived within without consultation. When I let my manager know that I was not comfortable with owning the full responsibility and did not have prior experience, I was told that it was my responsibility regardless. - I was affected by multiple layoffs and promised at different points in time that I would receive support due to being the only individual in my role. After 1+ years, the support never materialized, even after multiple business case presentations were made to various managers. When I made a misstep due to the amount of work on my plate toward the end of my tenure, I was then told that I should have asked for help by my manager at that time. - Favoritism in hiring and promotions is common. - Communication across the board is lacking. Teams will consistently send out information and updates via email and/or Slack, but other individuals or teams won't read or implement the information, resulting in inefficiencies. - Over the past 1 to 1.5 years, the majority of women in leadership roles (Director level or higher) and LGBTQ+ employees in general have either been terminated or left the company.
