Pros

Some of the concepts around public mobility at Via are really compelling, and I was drawn in by the ideas they pitched.

Cons

No transparency from the executive team, all talk or DEI is just lip service. When I wanted to talk in my team meeting about how I was feeling about the George Floyd protest I was told "to shut up unless I had something positive to say" and this is absolutely the company line. When people asked when their raises and promotions were planning to be readdressed they were told to stop whining, even when it was disproportionately POC who were left behind in promotion. There is absolutely no internal clarity on people related matters, and the CEO surrounds himself with yes men. There is no place at Via to be in any way critical of the CEO. Hands down the most toxic work environment I've ever been a part of.

Pros

Incredibly supportive management. Extremely healthy work environment. Company culture is top notch. Benefits are well above market average. Using PTO is encouraged, and when on PTO general duties are handled by supportive coworkers.

Cons

Extremely fast-paced environment. Real-time issues can arise, and can be stressful to resolve. Remote work can feel isolating, however, managers and coworkers are extremely easy to reach.

Pros

Most people you work with are nice, PTO is respected.

Cons

No strategy to speak of, the product is not good other than the acquisitions. Customers are treated poorly. C-suite is extremely tone deaf. Decisions come randomly from above with no bearing on what people are doing. There is no review cycle on purpose, the only people who get raises have other offers so many people are leaving. Which is a good idea because the stock price is down so all RSUs are underwater. Most teams are horribly overworked and underpaid and the one day a week lunch is getting worse.
