VHB reviews

very poor management, managers cannot bring work on to the hands of production staff during the promised allocated time during your weekly schedule, resulting in scrambling of billable work in order to meet a very highly unrealistic 95% billable rate. A couple months into my employment, I noticed that work repeated doesn't come through as planned, while managers will be either busy with their more "urgent matters" or took extended vacation, leaving production staff to a stand still.

The flip side of the emphasis on everyone being friends is a shocking lack of diversity, especially at the corporate HQ which is a white male dominated culture. It’s dozen offices are basically independent franchises with little understanding of each other’s capabilities and no incentives to collaborate. In fact the business metrics penalize offices for helping other offices. Offices protect their turf. The main office acts like a colonial power from centuries past, deliberately keeping the territorial offices small and bringing the best projects and their profits home to Boston. Probably a great place to work if you’re in Boston, but uninspiring and unchallenging the farther away one gets from the seat of the kingdom.
