Pros

I've been at Veeva for about 4 months. The people are smart, engaged, and helpful. The team overall is doing great things and there is a lot of excitement about the direction that the company is heading in. Veeva seems to truly care about the engagement and happiness of their employees, and they are also focused on doing the right thing for their customers.

Cons

The only negative I can think of is the hiring process. The CEO still reviews every single hire before signing off.... at 2600+ employees and growing, it is difficult to imagine how this is sustainable for the future. I interviewed for months before getting an offer, but I'm so glad I stuck with it!

Pros

Ever seen the video from Dan Pink about motivation? The one about Authority, Mastery, and Purpose? Google it - Veeva is like that. Autonomy: You are the “Captain of your Own Ship” but we have strong enough team spirit to help each other out. Mastery: You can learn about the industry, consulting, programming, and the product, gaining skills and experience which triple your value on the market - oh, and there is no such thing as a non-compete, because our CEO doesn’t believe in it. Purpose: What you do matters; what you think matters. Your everyday actions ripple across the company and the customers. People contribute (from their own time) and Veeva doesn’t take it for granted. People do get recognized, and given opportunities to help shape the future of the company and the industry. Coming to work here was the best decision of my life - I’m actually looking forward to Mondays.

Cons

Veeva is “Pressure makes diamond” or “Sink or Swim” type of company. Nobody is going to hold your hand while you walk up the stairs. You have to ask for help (which is provided in abundance) and you have to want to become better because of your own internal drive, otherwise you won’t succeed.

Pros

Company is great and so are the employees. The CEO genuinely cares about growing the company and keeping the culture. Unlimited PTO, can use 2% of your salary for book or classes to develop skills. Fitness reimbursement and stock. They like to promote within so there is plenty of opportunity to grow and learn.

Cons

If you don't like to work from home or travel this position might not be for you. Or if you're not self motivated.
