Could be great, but fails. Engineers know nothing about messaging or marketing or development of corporate culture. - Anonymous employee Viasat Employee Review

Pros

Good pay. Great benefits. If you liked middle-school, you'll love it here.

Cons

Bad communication. Broken promises. A lot of gas lighting. If you are male and under 30, you will thrive. If you are an "other," you will be in good company, but your opportunities to advance will be non-existent. Lots of color and diversity among the troops, but all the leaders are men. The walk the floor sometimes but on only stop to chat with the men. Sorry ladies/poc, you are just window dressing.

Pros

Good work-life balance with flexible scheduling

Cons

Over the past several years, the company has lacked a clear long-term strategy, resulting in frequent reorganizations, shifting priorities, and multiple rounds of layoffs. Decision-making often feels reactive rather than strategic, creating uncertainty and making it difficult to execute long-term plans. Internal processes can also be overly complex, slowing down work and reducing efficiency.
