Great culture but lost objective

Pros

Great group of people. People have said if before but it's true - Volusion does an amazing job at hiring the right people and it amounts to a pretty amazing culture. Pretty decent work and life balance and as long as you are getting your work done, it's fairly easy going.

Cons

- No transparency. No one in the company knows what is going on. That trickles down to each and every team member and after awhile it feels like you have no idea what your actual goal is. The company's objective is often unclear and they launched a product far too early for strategic use or profit. - Below average pay - Most of the "Startup" perks are often things you have to end of paying for - Too much input from top executives who should stay out of the way. You have an amazing team of people, let them do their jobs. - The company is split up into two buildings and more often than not their is some definite favoritism going on. - Their doesn't seem to be much strategy but rather a ton of arbitrary deadlines set down from top executives to "push the limits". These deadlines again, make for rushed product releases and aggravated employees who want to see the product grow rather than fail.

Pros

This review applies to Kramer only. Great culture, fun workplace. Some people in the company is just simply amazing - job wise and culture wise. If new to the web field - Volusion is willing to hire you and train you up. Lot of internal promotions.

Cons

Lower than average pay compared to industry standard, serious management issues (early 2015 there is a huge layoff). A lot of people in IT/Marketing are actually very incompetent - which lead to 20% of people doing 80% of the work. Management has serious issues with company politics - some folks never do any work but get all the credit.

Pros

Awesome work culture! Every company should have a culture like this - fun, creative, fast-moving.

Cons

CTO took 3+ years and a phenomenal team of 20+ highly paid developers to launch a product that has yet to be proven profitable.
