Uncontrolled Micromanagement

Pros

Veeva offers the opportunity to engage in meaningful and challenging work alongside intelligent and talented colleagues. The company’s culture fosters a positive environment, and the compensation package is competitive, providing a strong foundation for employees to thrive.

Cons

My experience at Veeva has been hindered by significant issues with local management in Raleigh. The level of micromanagement is stifling, with every decision, regardless of its significance, requiring approval from management. This lack of trust and receptiveness to staff ideas leaves developers feeling marginalized and demoralized. Furthermore, management’s tendency to prioritize being the “cool boss” often leads to inappropriate joking and belittling remarks, contributing to a toxic work environment. The turnover at lower levels of management in Raleigh is concerning, and the constant shifts in priorities driven by the loudest voices in project management result in incomplete work and a lack of achievement in both speed and quality.

Pros

The people working along side you are open minded and eager to work. The perks of good equipment, Veeva giving and health and wellness is a plus. The CEO is positive and has a great style.

Cons

The middle level leadership is missing collaboration across teams. Veeva has grown and touches so much within the regulated industry from CRM, RTSM, CTMS, VAULT , VAlign and Events Management. If customers are looking to work across Veeva there needs to be a HUGE effort to have all these teams collaborate. Each BU is a silo and and it is trickling down and creating and uneasy workplace. Stop taking on so much new business and look at the employees work load and capacity.

Not worth it

Pros

The people doing the work are hard working and brilliant. Working with them really made a difference in getting customers live and happy

Cons

Upper management is idealist and only listens to affirmations of ideas. Middle management only manages upwards vs actually helping their reports. Pay is under market average but they will tell you it's above/at market value. The projects will pile on more and more with little regard to work/life balance and your health. Management regularly praises those who put in the longest hours and insists company culture and 'helping pharma industry' is more important than your health, wealth, or personal life. They one time praised an employee for rescheduling their wedding!
