Pros

If your lucky, you will get connected with coworkers ready to explain or share their “true” opinion. Good experience, work from home, good product, that’s all.

Cons

Training is a total joke. Training is not existent, if you call two fours hour courses on the system enough to make you an expert, that is just sad representation of true training. No support from management, you just have to know your stuff and even if you ask, you are thrown into a disorganized mess of an internally shared space of outdated resources. Be ready to learn between the lines, read your eyes out, and feel like you are on your own island as no one has the time to give you a properly not shown what your suppose to do. No work and life balance, claims to be but realistically you don’t have that luxury unless you don’t have many projects. But with all the changes, you are required to have x amount of hours or justify how you spent your week. Waste of potential, a lot of emphasis on creating new products, gaining more accounts, meeting higher quotas, money money money I supposed, but no focus on fixing current structure, training, deliverables or supporting the teams. You are on your own on this one.

Pros

Intense job. Working here gives you skills that make you incredibly competitive (only for R&D associates as the commercial folks have it much easier). Great to put this job on your resume.

Cons

No work life balance. Mental health is not really cared for and managers are not receptive to what associates need. A lot of the work and burden push onto associates. Below average pay. Not the same old Veeva culture anymore.

Pros

- Free lunch - Unlimited PTO - Extremely good stock options (changed this year) - Competitive pay - 2% of your income in education - Fitness reimbursement - Work/life balance - Can switch teams, products, or job titles at any time - Huge mix of junior, mid level, and senior engineers. - Engineers from atypical backgrounds (passionate / motivated). - Week break at the end of the year. - CEO / Upper management seem to know their stuff. For me personally on my team (might apply to others): - Insanely good manager, he purposely wants us to improve our skills for our future. - Manager will be the face of problems that you make. - Everyone on my team is extremely nice, talented, and fit together well. - Occasional events with the team. - Relaxed work sechedules ("9-5" but flexible). I'm curious if other reviews end up with bad teams.

Cons

- Learning all the tech, software, terminology, products is overwhelming initially. - The core software which creates nearly all products is an insanely huge code base. - Huge code base is annoying to develop in due to size, slowness, and VM that's required. - Software growing pains (see last two points). The company has grown very fast and still looks to add thousands of employees in the next few years. - Some teams aren't as friendly. - Some teams are overwhelmed (dev ops seem to need a lot more people). - Lunch is sometimes meh.
