One of the best jobs I've ever had

Pros

Talented, friendly coworkers. Supportive employers who respect our personal time (they even have a Director of Employee Happiness whose job is exactly what it sounds like). 100% remote work (no more commute!) Great perks like unlimited free drinks at Starbucks and $50/month toward a gym membership. Also, as a west coast employee who loves to start early and finish early, I love that we're on east coast time. My day begins at 7am and ends at 3pm. Plenty of time to walk the dog and go grocery shopping while everyone else is still at work. I'm also a huge fan of half-day Fridays.

Cons

On-boarding was rough. A lot of information in a lot of different places. This is something that management is aware of and actively working to improve, though. The local dev environment is finicky and fragile, and the legacy code is tough to work with. But again, these are things that are known issues and are being resolved.

Toxic leadership organization-wide

Pros

Some of the team members are awesome to work with. In some roles, you'll have the opportunity to learn a decent amount. And the company's clout looks good on a resume. The fanboys are rabid.

Cons

Leadership is horrible across the board, and it trickles down into everything. No clear roadmap, dictatorial style from the top down (the CEO just does what he wants and forces everyone to do what he wants, no room for disagreement, ever, even if it means ruining people's lives by making them work insane hours, weekends, and overtime for no reason other than a random whim), and any disagreement is seen as being negative. Salaries are all over the place. No consistency or adherence to market rate. Total bro culture. If you're not 'in' with the cool kids, you're screwed. They hire their (unqualified) friends behind the scenes without anyone else a chance. Being 'in' means being a puppet who doesn't ever make waves or is ambitious. Zero professional growth. If you have your own thoughtful ideas about how to do thing, unless leadership agrees, which they probably won't, forget it. Want to move up? Get good reviews, work hard, do good work... and be rewarded with sub-market rate pay and no career path or opps to advance, but you'll get lots and lots of promises about possibilities that never materialize. For InVision, all that matters is the bottom line. They present themselves as being collaborative, friendly, family-like -- it's a facade. At the end of the day, top level leadership just barks orders and you either do it or you're ostracized. Like other reviews say, pay attention to the negative reviews here. You'll see a trend about leadership. They padded this account with positive reviews by requesting reviews from newer-ish employees, but if you have ambitions to grow and want to be respected, look elsewhere.

Fantastic place to work

Pros

I'm a relatively recent hire at InVision, but I already love my job and the company. Everyone here is very friendly and supportive, and we have a clear mission to empower the future of product design. The work I do is fulfilling, and working from home allows me to have great work/life balance.

Cons

InVision is fully distributed, which comes with the typical pros and cons of remote work. It can take some effort to get to know colleagues outside of your immediate team.
