Pros

Vertex is a flexible work environment and their loose organizational structure does allow for some freedoms for self-motivated workers. There's a lot of job security and a great work-life balance, as they generate a lot of revenue but don't have much competition.

Cons

The bureaucratic complexities of this company and the resistance to change leads to organizational nightmares at every level and in every department. They fear technological advancements and refuse to pay off tech debt in spite of having the labor hours to do so. Many of management's decisions are based around avoiding jobs that are hard or that would reduce the workload of someone in another department and threaten job security, even if doing so threatens the stability of the organization at large.

Pros

- Valuable to have a job in this market, and somewhere that historically pays a market rate - unlimited PTO for fulltime

Cons

- New CEO is something...concerning. Workforce reduction, replacing C-suite with former pals from previous companies, huge push on AI without the subsequent reassurance that our jobs won't be replaced. Seems like the goal is for all of us to train AI to do our jobs before getting let go. Really tone deaf when us little people have livlihoods on the line.
