Pros

Most of the people you work with are great. Free food.

Cons

Where do I start? It used to be an awesome place to work, but in the last couple of years it has gone downhill. Management is pretty incompetent and office politics are rampant. Constantly changing deadlines and priorities. Compensation is TBD given the stock grants are frozen. Silent layoffs. Visa sponsorship has stopped for most roles.

Thank you for taking time to share your feedback on your experience at Verily - we're happy to hear you have enjoyed colleagues. We're sorry that decision-making and communication from some management has been less positive. Verily is on a transformation journey and we acknowledge the resulting change can be challenging. We hope you were able to tune into last week's Town Hall where leadership shared exciting updates on our product portfolio and the momentum we've built. We encourage you to reach out to PACT if you have any suggestions for how we can make Verily a great place to work.

Pros

Good compensation and nice coworkers

Cons

It’s like leadership is trying to be as stereotypically corporate-nasty and sketchy as possible. (For fun, maybe? Hope you’re having fun in your dark gray blazers.) The company feels very unstable from the inside and morale has completely tanked. There’s also a highly uncomfortable obsession and dependence on office presence. They begrudgingly give two remote days, for now, but the work you do isn’t as important as “looking busy” and performance optics in the office. I just can’t recommend Verily as a place of work, unless you’re desperate or have an unexpectedly brilliant long-term plan to make it work for your career?
