Pros

- solid team members who are kind and welcoming - flexible remote policy from Covid and we won’t be forced to go into the office if we don’t want to - cordial community of people

Cons

- DEI efforts seem really performative. It doesn’t seem like management is trained on DEI and I’ve overheard some uncomfortable things said. In addition, the company feels dominated by white folks in management and I haven’t seen many folks of color hired or promoted. - Compared to other tech companies, three weeks PTO is very little. Yes, there is a week at Christmas and some holidays mixed in, but you don’t get to choose those days and many tech companies have those as well in addition to better benefits. - work-life balance needs attention

Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. In 2021, DEI was a key focus area for Veracross which is a key pillar of our culture of Service, Humility, Excellence and Inclusion. We engaged and continue to work with DEI Advisors to deepen our commitment to create a more diverse and inclusive employee workforce, culture and product offering for our customers. We will soon be sharing with our employees our census trend over the last few years and one highlight will be the positive results in our effort to recruit a more diverse workforce. We are taking concrete steps to ensure our DEI efforts are in fact genuine and will deliver tangible impact. With respect to PTO, we evaluate our benefits compared to market data annually to make sure we are competitive. When we evaluated PTO last year, we found that our offerings were aligned with other tech companies of our size and location. However, we will continue to evaluate our PTO policies and all our benefit offerings to ensure we remain competitive.

Thank you for your review and for the two perspectives. Work-life balance is something we actively protect, and we're glad it held up during your time here. Vertical paths inside consulting roles can be hard to engineer. Wishing you well in what comes next.

Pros

The people are the real answer to why I've stayed. The leaders I've reported to have been consistently strong, and my colleagues across teams operate with a genuine sense of mutual investment. We help each other out. That's not a given at any company, and it's held true here through a lot of change. My role has grown alongside the company, and that parallel trajectory has been one of the more satisfying parts of the job. As Veracross has scaled, new challenges have opened up rather than narrowed. The work has been visible to leadership, and that visibility has felt earned rather than performative. Remote work post-COVID has been handled well. We're back in the office in a limited capacity, somewhere between once a month and a few weeks a year depending on role. The space itself is worth mentioning: open design, collaborative layout, strong meeting infrastructure, and solid tech connecting remote and in-person participants. It's the kind of space that actually supports how people work. The AI story here is worth its own paragraph. We've been rolling out an AI chatbot for our service organization, and the product team has a significant AI initiative coming in the flagship app. What's notable about both is the approach: deliberate, collaborative, and built around learning together rather than shipping something fast to check a box. Cross-functional knowledge sharing has been a real part of how this has happened, not a talking point. The long tenure numbers say something too. Several colleagues have 15-plus years here. The original cohort from the early days is still largely intact. That kind of retention doesn't happen by accident.

Cons

Growth at this scale comes with costs. Veracross has gone through periods of rebalancing, and that has meant losing colleagues who were valued and well-regarded. Those moments are hard, and the reasoning behind workforce decisions doesn't always reach the people most affected by them. For employees below the senior level, that gap between what leadership sees and what the rest of the org experiences can erode trust quickly, even when the underlying decisions are sound.

Thank you for writing your review with the care you did. Ten-plus years is a long time to grow alongside a company and the observations about the team, the AI work, and the long-tenure cohort read as the kind of judgment that only comes from being here through real change. The point about workforce decisions resonates, and we're always working to be clear about the why and be present with the people most affected. The comment about communication lands in the same place. Thank you for the long run, and for being honest about both sides of it.
