Pros

Excellent collaborative atmosphere, high level of motivation and work effort from my co-workers. Supervisors provided guidance and direction, but did not over manage. There was a constant opportunity for making and implementing my own decisions and ideas when solving a problem. Employees were treated as a valued resource.

Cons

ViaSat maintained an excellent company wide culture about providing flexibility and many freedoms to keep its employees, motivated, effective and happy.

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.
