Pros

- Flexible. You can work from home if you need to. Take random days off. As long as you do well and your manager is okay with it. - Health benefits are ok. Just recently added life insurance. - The company itself is doing great. No fears of layoffs here.

Cons

- Low pay (if you're not a developer) - Stingy - No compensation outside of some (few) stock opportunities - No upward movement within the company. They will hire a nobody before they promote the guy who's been there for 3 years. - Very few events throughout the year. 1 summer and 1 winter event. - Some events for only for developers - No 401k matching - Their #1 priority is "customer success". In doing that, they leave employee success in a far second. - No food. The kitchen is only stocked with a small amount of fruits/nuts on Monday which are gone by Tuesday.

Pros

Growing company with a lot of opportunities. Good work-life balance. A company with strong products. Great teamwork environment. Employee Success is one of the company values.

Cons

It is a place for people that know how to manage their freedom. If you are not ready for that, be aware, maybe Veeva is not a place for you.

Pros

- Flex work schedule with work from home options - Great branding, with a cult like attitude toward the color orange - In office perks are free tuesday lunch and a new building in the works - We finally have dental coverage

Cons

- No bonuses for non consultants. Stock options were relevant before the company went public but at this point the value of the shares hasn't gone up (rather down) in the past year. - No 401k matching - In office culture is dead. If you like working with a place where you consider it fun going into work with good friends, this is not the place. - Little to NO growth opportunities. They are more willing to hire a new manager with less experience than the team, rather than promote. - No programs for training or education reimbursement (beyond training of their own software) - No PTO is a blessing and a curse. You have to earn the right to take off, you don't own your vacation days so there is nothing owed to you. If you want to take an extended vacation you better work hard to earn that right. - Very sparse diversity especially at the executive level - Politics are starting to rear their ugly head - Cost cutting is starting to take form. Previous perks and events are starting to scale back. - Managers aren't trained to develop employees - Early employees are leaving. A bit disheartening to see lack of commitment to employee success
