Pros

*Sincere, humble leadership team that truly cares and inspires. Truly…no BS. These guys rock! *New ideas welcome -- dream it, make a business case for it, build it! *Performance based freedom. Earn it - Receive it. *Strong and ethical busines practices - do it right. *"Safe" environment. You can make mistakes. Creates a healthy teamwork. No backstabbing *Results, results, results. Get the results. Own your territory - make it happen. They have historically focused on the results and not micromanaging activity (which can always be "embellished"). *Ability to become a "partner". Key focus is creating a strong career path for their employees. *Low turnover - High performing peers. Work with the best of the best. Typically hire seasoned performers. *Compensation - unlimited *Great rewards, recognition, parties, trips, etc. "FUN" is well-spoken at Vaco, LLC *"Outlaws Welcome" - A great culture - not a "cult".

Cons

Replication - Ability to replicate the culture into new markets is a challenge. Communication - Communication between headquarters, markets, etc. could be improved. Perhaps invest in technology platforms that promote communication (or even simple company wide facebook page that is kept private for employees only) Onboarding - Difficult with so many locations, but I struggled with technology, passwords, etc. for several weeks. Unsure of who to go to, etc. Marketing materials, website, etc.

Pros

I was at Google's Mountain view office, allowed to use a very large majority of Google's perks. The team was great. Commute was very easy thanks to Google's commuter buses Very relaxed position.

Cons

Management some times get a little too pushy wanting documentation on everything. or wants us to have all of our work, and timestamps on everything.
