Pros
Vorto provides the opportunity for independent, high level thinkers to maximize their contribution and hone their abilities. The typical limiting factors of a corporate environment do not exist here. You can express your ideas and quickly act on them without the many layers of red tape you have likely experienced in the past. You are measured by the value you create for the organization and its customers. The bar is set very high but, we are accomplishing things that our competition has yet to imagine. This is a place for talented, driven individuals to shape the future while solving some of our planets most important problems.
Cons
Working at Vorto is a commitment to joining the highest performing team of its kind. You must truly want to do great things and meet the toughest of challenges to work here. Failure to immerse yourself in the culture and give max effort will not work out well.

Pros
It started off well - I arrived and people took an active interest, the CEO was like oh our spouses and families are important, they are supporters of our sacrifices here at Vorto, bring them in, show them around the office, we have company BBQ's. So I did, but senior leadership ignored them, and they soon after started ignoring me (I didn't feel personally offended, as this was the case with everyone - unless you were referred to as an OG, which stood for an Original employee). These Originals are treated like gold, they can do know wrong, and surprise surprise they are all software engineers. They do provide free dinners if you work late, but be careful, sometimes the engineering and product team try to do a sneaky order so they whole of operations don't order to, they try to save costs here, very unfair and dishonest.
Cons
Senior leadership take caffeine pills and energy drinks as soon as they arrive into work. My self worth dropped, a lot. Know one will provide you with any feedback, and all of a sudden you see people getting fired left right and centre. The HR team is really lovely and helpful, but now most of them all left (I don't blame them) and with an unhinged c-suite team I'm not sure who can help us here.One time a c-suite employee joked about flipping desks, wanting to be Elon Musk...another time we were all asked to scream Vorto out on the top of our lungs in support at a town hall (I mouthed the word). Someone wrote a review saying Bridgewater meets Telsa - what a joke! Every negative review I read wholeheartedly agree with. I feel bad for anyone who relocated for this job, don't sign a long lease lol. The amount of times I went to the bathrooms and found someone crying I could be a millionaire, its extremely sad. As I write this review I know its time to leave. You stay here because there are good people, we are ambitious, we are driven and we enjoy working with each other however due to poor planning, poor leadership and poor values (culture blog on the website is untrue - just sell your sole and you will be worshiped by the CEO). There is a huge boys club here. They joke about getting Vorto tattoos but I'm not sure its a joke anymore. You will work hard because they hire self-starters, just make sure that you don't lose yourself in the process, I have. Weekends are not sacred, get ready to be available on slack 24/7 - I sound like an alarmist but just ask anyone who works here outside of leadership, they will back me up. Its hard to work hard when you do not get competitive pay nor do you have anytime off to yourself, its all work and no play. A few people pride themselves on staying in the office to all hours, eating breakfast lunch and dinner here. People who live in the office, even if they are goofing off or sitting with their friends eating for two hours are viewed as better employees than those churning out work efficiently for 10 hours. This is my only regret in life, taking this job and working for Vorto!! Senior leadership is cruel and unjust, please do not make us laugh at others expense with you to keep our jobs.
