Pros

Its a great place to get experience with programming, databases, tech support, and the medical field.

Cons

The CEO runs the company like its still the 80's and micromanages to no end. There is no management structure, everyone reports directly to him. He may say in the morning meeting that the focus will be project A, then a couple hours later tell everyone to stop everything and to focus all energy on B. This is a common occurrence. If he is unsatisfied with your work, its normal for him to yell at you and call you stupid, he may even slap your back or head in the process. He abuses his staff and takes advantage of desperate people that need a job or experience. He constancy lies to his customers and just tells them what they want to hear. "Promises are made to be broken" is a direct quote. He doesn't like when employees leave at 5pm, he wants people to go above and beyond but doesn't reward or acknowledge any extra effort in any way. Its a common occurrence to hear him yelling at employees in his office, or right in the common work area. He will air employees personal business in meetings and bad mouth people behind their back. Knowledge is consistency lost because no one sticks around long enough to train new hires. There is no project management, projects take way to long and are most of the time never completed because a new crisis comes up and projects are forgotten. The most work we ever got done was when the CEO went out of town for a couple of weeks and we implemented a SCRUM team without his knowledge.

Pros

Working at VersaSuite has been a great learning experience. It is one of the few companies that I have applied to that offers a great opportunity to new Junior Developers to get experience working on enterprise-level projects. I love it here. With that being said, because it is a small team compared to a big corporation, it's hard to hide from not being productive. You need to be self-directed and solution-driven. So if you are going to apply, set your expectations accordingly. I have learned more on the job in the first few months than I did anywhere else. Your teammates are great, very supportive and understanding. They will help you along to grow and learn. But it's on you to put in the work. So if you are self-driven, dedicated, hard-working with love for learning, you will love it here too. P.S. About management: Because this is a smaller company, we report directly to the CTO. There is no bureaucracy here. So when decisions are made, they are made with you in the room. The meetings tend to be direct and straight to the point. Because at the end of the day, the company has to generate revenue. This can be intimidating to some, because you are so close to the fire, and you feel that your decisions and work directly influence the company's goal to bring the best value and service to their clients as possible.

Cons

A Small company compared to a big organization so you have to have the ability to wear many hats. It can be a con if your expectations are not set correctly.

VersaSuite is a place where you can learn your craft. Often we are the first place for many coders to come to work. On the job training while intense does build skills quickly. The working environment is fast-paced and you are right you can spread your wings if willing faster at VersaSuite then you can at other similar companies.
