Pros

Individual contributors get to witness first hand what happens when unqualified people get promoted into sales VP positions with almost zero leadership experience, and then refuse to step away from operations because they have nothing better to do with their time.

Cons

Fear based leadership is alive and thriving at Filevine.

It's a rough ride

Pros

It is a fast growing company.

Cons

This is probably the most challenging company I have ever worked for in my 20 year career. The product suite is too broad for the number of employees we have. The expectation to work beyond normal hours is encouraged. The CEO boasted on one call that he had worked 110 hours for the past week, and he felt great. He also dropped a message that we could all tell our grandchildren that we were part of making Filevine the greatest legal tech company. That is not what I want my family or grandchildren to know about me. I work to support them - not to offer them a legacy of business accomplishments. There is no proactive measure from HR or really anyone to shape the culture intentionally. It's just a big, reactive machine that will eat you alive unless you protect yourself. I don't mind working hard. I like working. But when I am treated like a necessary robotic part of a large money making machine, it feels very dehumanizing.

Thank you for your honest and valuable feedback! We apologize that the message shared with employees made you feel dehumanized or like a robot, as this was not the intention. With the company growing so rapidly, its easy to get caught up in the excitement of that. We fully recognize that each and every person working at Filevine is crucial to the success of the company, and hope that we can continue to make improvements so that it can be the phenomenal place you speak of! Your honesty does not go unnoticed, and we hope you will continue to bring your individuality to work every single day!

Pros

Nothing at all. This isn’t worth it

Cons

Where to start…. Horrible environment where they hire and promote people who get on their knees, suck up, and suck at their job They over look true talent and only look after friends They allow for bad culture which means they allow bad habits on how they treat clients which is even worse No guidance for growth, opportunity or exposure for promotions unless you suck up
