VTS reviews

- Pay is below market, though they do a whole song-and-dance about the quality of salary. Getting a promotion involves PowerPoint presentations, and panel discussions with people who have no idea what you actually do. - Management has nothing in their 12 month goal beyond “being profitable”. If that means cutting out huge swaths of their workforce to do it, they will. Never mind that VTS has expanded rapidly since 2019 and the rollercoaster ride of priorities has meant that needed roles are now vacant. Individuals are doing 3x the work and shuffled to teams where they are expected to pick up even more slack. - CEO’s reason for telling employees to return to the office? “Because I f***ing said so” - For all of their talk of diversity and inclusiveness, VTS had no problem laying off a large amount of women and POC in 2023. It is entirely lip service. They pushed for more diversity and inclusion only when it suited them.

- Terrible decision-making coming from the top-level, who change their strategy every 6 months - C-suite is entirely out of touch with the employees - There used to be some level of transparency, for example anonymous Q&A at all-hands that's shared publicly. Q&A is no longer anonymous and is only shared with leaders who choose to answer questions or not. They've even turned off the zoom chat so you can't comment during meetings. It really comes across like they're scared of getting feedback - Re-orgs are happening too often and aren't aligned to the software architecture, people's skills or performance. Seems like director-level or higher folks are making these decisions without even speaking to managers or having a clue who they're moving around
