      Great Jumping Point for Your Future Career

      Pros

      Management is great about recognizing talent within individuals and redefining their role in the company to utilize those strengths. I began my time in this company with many others at the bottom of the company in the Support department. Within a year, everyone who desired to move out of the department into another role within the company did so (the department contained roughly 50 people at that time). This is a common recurrence every year, so that the company is beneficially saturated with those who have changed roles multiple times, honing in on their expertise. The culture here is also very relaxed, open, and fun. A fair amount of good food, quarterly outings during company time with your department, all the main holidays off, and various fun events during the year.

      Cons

      Although it is easy to move freely from role to role, the salary is not very high in any position unless you are in upper management or in one of the few select departments (such as Product) who seem to actually have money.

      Just don't do it.

      Pros

      The only pro I would say to working here is that you learn to deal with extreme micromanagement which is helpful because it will make your your next job that much better. The HR girls do a good job of making events too so that the whole team can get together and play games or eat some wings and drink some beer. But these pros you can get at any start up company and to be completely frank, they do not make up for the cons. It is also a pretty easy sales gig if you are just starting our your career.

      Cons

      Don't work here. The pay is way lower than what a decent salesperson can make elsewhere in Austin. I have watched all my friends come in, realize what this place is, and then leave. Management makes you feel guilty any time you want to take a day off, the one time I asked to take some days off for vacation with family, I was given so much push back that I almost flat out didn't go even though I earned that time off. There is only one decent sales manager there and he is the youngest of them all which says a lot about the rest of the higher ups. Managers will look through their employees laptops to see if they are talking badly about them or their job on our instant message system, what is this middle school? This place is miserable and I am on my way out thankfully. I would not recommend this place to anyone with even an ounce of sales talent, take your skills and go somewhere that you will not be treated like a child and paid terribly.

      I am happy to hear you enjoyed the perks during your time with Volusion – a fun, laid-back environment certainly helps alleviate every day work pressures. It is disappointing to learn you had negative experiences with management. With regular check-ins, anonymous surveys, and employee feedback, we are able to address any issues between management and their reports. In addition, I hope every employee feels comfortable enough to discuss any of these issues with their department head. Providing competitive salaries is a priority at Volusion, and we are continually evaluating to ensure every high performing employee is valued and compensated fairly.

      Pros

      It's satisfying to work with small business owners. Volusion does actually focus on making money while providing value to customers, and isn't concerned as much with flash or image.

      Cons

      Loyalty is valued much more than competency here. Pay was not great. There was a lot of legacy code there that was concerning.
