Pros

Location and design of office space

Cons

Poor leadership, reductions in labor (huge lay offs), over promising to orgs like Yellow Pages, Cox, and others. Chasing the dream of being bought out by Facebook, mining and selling personal data, and very poor vision by TK

Dear Reviewer, Many thanks for sharing your insightful opinion. In January 2020, Verve Wireless was acquired by MGI and together with PubNative, P161 and LKQD formed a new company called Verve Group. There’s been a complete change in management and in the company culture. We try to use feedback from the former Verve Wireless to learn from it and ensure we are not making the same mistakes. If you want to get in touch and share more details, please do not hesitate to reach us at hr@verve.com All the best to you! Verve HR team

Pros

The team works hard and actually enjoys working together. A lot of employees have stayed a long time because they love the culture and the team they work with. The pace is fast and you'll have real responsibility from day one, you won't just be a cog in a large product org. It's the kind of place where you can build meaningful skills, make a visible impact, and grow quickly. Unlimited time off, and employees actually use it. You also get 3 wellness days and a hybrid (3/day per week) or remote work schedule (depending on the position). Just moved to a great new office in Soho.

Cons

Things move quickly and priorities can shift, so if you prefer a more structured corporate environment it may be an adjustment. That said, the pace creates real opportunities to take on more responsibility as a PM.

Pros

- There are some genuine, solid people who care about their jobs and want to do good work - some parts of the technology are good

Cons

This list could go on forever. If you are smart and care at all for your career, you should avoid Verve at all costs. - toxic work environment - constant layoffs - absolutely no communication from senior management - no vision - the overall product is 4 years behind - revolving door of execs - the CEO has the charisma and vision of a potato - expected to work non stop - pay is low
