Pros

The product is pretty good and I like the swag/merch

Cons

The BDR department has taken a downward spiral since I started at Filevine. The VP makes inappropriate comments and acts like he is better than everyone else. The director noticeably plays favorites, gives events to the same people even if we earn our spot and we often wonder what he does all day. The rest of the managers do the best they can working under those 2. The only manager who helped their team get to quota was recently kicked out, leaving a gap in the department and leaving the other managers to pick up the slack. Everyone is burned out and management doesnt seem to care, they just keep micromanaging and shoving higher and higher numbers down our throats we are never going to hit. We get punished if we ask for time off and don't bother calling in sick or you will have to show proof. If we dont do it their way then you will never get promoted and Im proof of that. There is ZERO flexibility even if you have appointments or outside things happening. It feels like a prison at times. Do yourself a favor and look for another way to get into Sales. I was told how great it was to work at Filevine and I have not seen that yet. No wonder everyone quits.

It's a rough ride

Pros

It is a fast growing company.

Cons

This is probably the most challenging company I have ever worked for in my 20 year career. The product suite is too broad for the number of employees we have. The expectation to work beyond normal hours is encouraged. The CEO boasted on one call that he had worked 110 hours for the past week, and he felt great. He also dropped a message that we could all tell our grandchildren that we were part of making Filevine the greatest legal tech company. That is not what I want my family or grandchildren to know about me. I work to support them - not to offer them a legacy of business accomplishments. There is no proactive measure from HR or really anyone to shape the culture intentionally. It's just a big, reactive machine that will eat you alive unless you protect yourself. I don't mind working hard. I like working. But when I am treated like a necessary robotic part of a large money making machine, it feels very dehumanizing.

Pros

Nothing at all. This isn’t worth it

Cons

Where to start…. Horrible environment where they hire and promote people who get on their knees, suck up, and suck at their job They over look true talent and only look after friends They allow for bad culture which means they allow bad habits on how they treat clients which is even worse No guidance for growth, opportunity or exposure for promotions unless you suck up
