Pros
If Glassdoor allowed percentages, I would have given a star rating of 3.75. I have been a full time employee at Veristat for 6 months. Here is what I have learned in that time: - The company has grown from 65 employees to about 200 employees in the last 3 years. Company growth like this means that there is also a lot of room for employees to grow and get promoted as the company expands. - In the functional areas, employees get exposed to a wide variety of therapeutic areas and can look forward to working on multiple projects. - Managers and leadership team are very approachable. - Good benefits. - Casual dress code. - The company actually listens to employee suggestions and makes changes when possible and in when in the best interest of the company. - Managers and employees genuinely care about their each other. I was out for a week for surgery and had a lovely bouquet of flowers show up at my house from my teammates with a 'get well soon' note.
Cons
- The pace is incredibly fast. This may not be a con for everyone, but some people may not be able to keep up if they are used to only working on one project at a time. - Any company growing this fast will go through some growing pains. Veristat is no exception to this rule. Luckily, executives have their finger on the pulse and do their best to minimize the negative impact.
