Pros

Beautiful buildings in a great area. Great benefits and RSU payout

Cons

Believe everything you’ve read in prior reviews. Company culture is not what they want you to believe. Bullying and harassment at high levels is tolerated. Micromanagement at high levels is the norm. All that experience you came to the company with will not be valued.

Thank you for taking the time to post your review. Please reach out to your manager or HR if you feel you are being bullied. That is not the culture we want at Vertex and we will make sure it is corrected.

Pros

-Compensation -Benefits -Smart and capable co-workers make the day to day easier to navigate

Cons

-Poor leadership (specifically in the Quality organization). - Leadership does not lead by example - It's not unusual to observe a Quality VP or Sr.director taking screenshots of Teams chats (for CYA?). I question the level of trust (in both directions). This behavior creates a toxic environment. - Quality role scope creep- leadership tries to "own" and/or oversee the activities of other departments outside the scope of their QA responsibility which makes execution of processes cumbersome and, in many cases, non-value added and confusion over responsibility ownership.
