Pros

-collegial atmosphere among young coworkers (non-management) -financially successfully company -some opportunity to learn about the real estate industry -good place to work if you're looking for a comfortable, predictable job, performing the same or similar functions in your role -good place if you're looking to add a job function to your resume for 12-18 months

Cons

-Richmond Hill office is the back-office for Accounting and IT/Tech Support, the exciting work and growth happens at the Houston (Ops) office -long hours (especially at year-end, perhaps this should be expected) -repetitive work (that should largely be outsourced or automated) -very few opportunities to move laterally to other teams -few opportunities for promotion (this and previous comment only occur when massive exits take place - high turnover every 2 to 3 years) -some managers (now exited) do not fit the spirit of the company and over-worked their teams, resulting in the previously mentioned turnover -career development plans and pulse surveys are really just checkbox items, not actioned or realized in subsequent weeks, months, years -not recommended for those searching for internal career development (some of this is also due to the small office size) -teams work in a siloed fashion, even in the same department -weak bonus structure, rely only on your base salary, the bonuses are low and also impossible to achieve the top two classifications more than once in a blue moon -remote office location (not much of a concern with remote/hybrid plans)

We appreciate you taking the time to reflect on your time with us here and it’s great to know you feel our current Richmond Hill Leadership team embodies Venterra’s values. Given the importance of providing our employees an opportunity to consistently expand their knowledge and skills beyond their specific role while offering competitive compensation, we appreciate the feedback in this area, as well. We’re always looking for ways to get better, faster, and maintaining our focus on technology and automation plays a big role in making this happen. As we continue to expand and evolve, we’ll further automate many of our processes and, as new needs arise, we’ll be turning to our current team members to take on new roles and responsibilities so they can grow and evolve, as well. Thank you again for sharing the feedback! We’ll absolutely be taking it into account as we explore ways to further improve the experience of our team members, and please be sure to speak up if you have any additional thoughts to share!

Pros

Just started about 4 months ago and can only highlight how amazing this company is. The Leaders are so supportive and really focus on the employee experience. It's a culture of trust and doing the right thing. Everything from the interview, onboarding and training has been nothing less than exceptional!

Cons

Can't think of anything to be very honest. Happy at Venterra and couldn't imagine being anywhere else.

We appreciate you taking a moment to share the review, and I’m glad that you’ve been busy learning and having fun on the team! Compensation is definitely a big part of employee experience, so thank you for your feedback on the topic. We want to ensure that we’re providing all of our team members fair and competitive compensation and pride ourselves in having open conversations and leveraging industry benchmarks to ensure this is the case. With this in mind, I’d like to encourage you to have a candid conversation with your supervisor on this subject at any time so that we have a chance to look closer at your specific circumstances. Thanks again for sharing the review here.
