Pros

I have only been with Veeva for 8 months, but it is by far the best job I've had. Veeva cares not only about customers, but about employees too. The CEO, IT, Facilities, and HR team have handled the current pandemic situation with a lot of class. Communication across the board has been clear, consistent, and appreciated by all. And when a question or concern arises, my manager and even HR responds quickly. The people are top-notch and it is refreshing to be part of a company like Veeva that is making a difference.

Cons

Veeva operates like a start-up and I think it is time to invest more in systems. Our reviews are tracked on a google sheet. CEO is smart and engaged, but needs to empower and trust his team more without getting in the weeds. He still approves all new hires and sometimes it takes weeks for him to respond I've never met our CEO, but I hear people are afraid to speak up and challenge him professionally

Remote consultant review

Pros

-Good room for growth and opportunities to learn outside your role

Cons

At the time I left the company in 2019, I was in the outside of life sciences department. This was promised to be an exciting opportunity to branch out from just the life sciences industry in the quality/regulatory world. In reality, sales were not nearly as high as predicted, and a result the consulting team really only worked on implementations for a handful of key accounts, with some very small SMB accounts mixed in. This lead to an unreliable work load, some weeks being 60-80 hours versus some being 20-30 hour weeks. Being a remote consultant, this became very difficult to manage my time properly and plan out the rest of my life outside of work. Onboarding was also a struggle, as there was no defined onboarding process and trying to figure out the ropes was not easy at all. The department was growing at the time and nothing really seemed to be set in place or defined (internal processes, knowledge share topics, promotion/hiring structure, etc.). This lead to a lot of uncertainty in the role. Overall, I wouldn’t recommend joining this department as a consultant due to the high uncertainty in the role and lack of consistent work and internal governance.
