Pros

The employees under management are good people and work hard despite the continued pressure and workload being forced upon them by management.

Cons

Continual changes and restructuring within the company has led to multiple rounds of layoffs resulting in workloads that are impossible to keep up with. Overtime is not allowed so employees are working additional hours unpaid just to keep from drowning. Sales team is being tasked with sales demands that conflict each other, making bonuses hard to meet. They don't provide adequate training on sales platforms either. When management makes a mistake, they will utilize HR to shift blame on the employee regardless of how long an employee has been with the company or how spotless their record is.

Thank you for taking the time to provide us with your feedback. We are happy to hear that you enjoyed the people that you worked with. Our associates are important to us. No matter where they work or who they are, we trust in their individual skills and qualities and give them everything they need to reach their full potential. Layoffs are never an easy decision to make and not something we take lightly at Vallen. We are continuously working on improving our communication across our entire company with bi-weekly newsletters, leader communications, videos, and quarterly town hall meetings. Our goal is to keep our associates up to date and informed about all aspects of the company.
