Pros
I've worked at Vestmark for over 10 years and believe this is a great place to work. I've watched upper management steer the product vision to meet market shifts and demands and they have been right on target. The company has established itself as a leader in a space that is hard to break through. The leadership in Engineering is great. As a whole, management is fair, supportive and proactive with their direct reports. Work/life balance is very good here. We don't expect the 'hero' mentality and if someone puts in extra hours at night or on the weekends, it's acknowledged and reciprocated. The company tries to foster a fun work environment and has several events throughout the year. For example, food/drinks for Red Sox and Patriots season openers, paint/game nights, weekly summer outdoor events, company-wide summer and winter holiday parties, and numerous other events. Salaries at Vestmark are competitive. We have great health insurance (low premiums), 401k matching, all market holidays off plus 20 PTO days and equity.
Cons
The main area that needs improvement is cross-team communication and collaboration. There are lots of people in the company who have been here 10+ years and it can sometimes be difficult to let go of the ways of the past and make the bigger changes that will support the growth and scaling of the company.
