Pros

There are some truly great people who work at Volusion, however many are guilty of drinking the company kool-aid. Although, Volusion also tends to hire people right out of college and they're simply naive as to how a company should treat their employees.

Cons

Oh wow, where to begin: Weak compensation relative to the market Zero growth opportunities Lack of transparency in regards to the company's overall direction, management and profits A toxic culture where HR serves as attitude police to stomp out any discontent Blatant exaggerations of perks and benefits (i.e., free on-site dry cleaning service! Oh wait, in actuality this cost you an arm and a leg and is provided at zero cost to Volusion from a third party)

Pros

An a solute joke that cares absolutely nothing about investing I their employees. If you happened to read a positive review, I can assure you it was written by their hr department for the sake of damage control. I, along g with my coworkers are miserable. We report to a sub personages and a new director who hasn't the faintest clue as to what's truly going on. Volusion is a dying breed, and my coworkers and I are all looking elsewhere.! Horrible play, terrible new leadership and a hell hole of a place to work. We miss the old leadership and are disgusted by the self proclaimed "leaders of this company." LOOK ELSEWHERE! TERRIBLE PAY, ABSURD HOURS, AND SICKENING MGT AND DIRECTOR SPINS that they are nice enough to think we believe them. Simply pathetic. Place is abysmal.

Cons

Almost everything, literally. Mainly the new structure they put in place. Theyve dismissed their previous talent since those individuals over attained and made too much money, and now they want to pay pennies on the dollar to those of us working 70 hour weeks.

Pros

Besides the opportunity to work at such a fun company with endless benefits and perks, the people, team members and my manager were the reasons coming to work each morning was not only easy, but fun. At times it can be tough, but such is life. The good news is that those of us working hard, we were always hitting our number and making great bonus money. My advice for any one considering a position there is simple: be ready to work hard and be held accountable if you aren't hitting your number (thats just the nature of sales), but also be ready to work with a wonderful group of people led by managers willing to give you honest feedback, and give you what I believe is some of the best sales training I've received in my 5+year sales career. I'll take what I learned and continue to apply it throughout my career. Awesome place to work, highly motivated people, great leadership.

Cons

The end of the month is stressful. Starting from the very head of the company, you can feel the pressure being put on you to sell more and more and more despite trying your best to sell just as hard all month long. There are so many moving pieces when it comes to lead ownership because of new policies always being rolled out by SR. Management and that gets frustrating and tough to keep up. I was with Volusion for just over one year, and the culture started out perfect, but it seemed that the higher ups quickly begin to lose focus of whats really important--the employees. I was fortunate to have a team leader who would always pull me aside and give his honest feedback and about much he appreciated my hard work and that went along way.
