      Unprofessional - Not a place for Computer Science Majors - You're Either Management or Nobody

      Pros

      Real Perks - Free Coffee, Ice Cream, Fitness Equipment, Game Tables. Young, pleasant/cheerful/friendly environment. In a market that has potential (eCommerce) Company Values (on paper)

      Cons

      In a nutshell: **There is no value of employee potential** No attempt to develop employees and guide/drive them to the best of their abilities; the focus becomes merely on what can be produced. If you ever cross your manager you will get fired. No flexible work arrangements. No Privacy - completely open with a 4'x2' desk. It's tough to have your headphones on for hours a day... Software development bonus structure is abysmal - it is tiny a carrot on a stick; expect to work a considerable amount of extra time to consistently not meet the projected percentage each quarter. Software development department forcibly has no lighting - If you get a walk through the facilities you will see most of the overhead lights off. Any attempt to have a safe level of lighting will be met with criticism and fierce opposition. The software development department is dominated by people that learned to program or read the most current agile/architecture design patterns and are now software engineering leaders. The latest JavaScript framework, Document Database, or Service Bus gets added because it's all the rage. Adding to the unprofessionalism - Employees are encouraged to write positive (not objective) reviews here on Glassdoor.

      It is unfortunate you felt your work environment was below average. Management strives to address all employee issues presented to them, so I apologize your needs were not met to your satisfaction. Volusion employees are absolutely encouraged to provide feedback, positive or negative, whenever possible. Employee feedback is crucial to maintain a positive and balanced environment, which is why we provide quarterly anonymous surveys. The perks mentioned above were a result of employee input, and as we continue to grow, the information we receive is invaluable in keeping the company presence innovative, fresh and enjoyable.

      Where hard work still pays off.

      Pros

      I started in the support department and in less than two years have been promoted twice and now hold a position in our corporate office. This, of course, is not the case for every employee, but I can say without a doubt hard work gets noticed here. Volusion values their employees and does what it can to provide a clear path to success. The free food, game rooms and gym are appreciated, but it is this company's culture, spirit and work ethic that keep me walking in the front door.

      Cons

      Volusion is still in that awkward stage between start-up and going public. While I find working for a company in this stage an opportunity of a lifetime, I can see why someone else would not. It often scares away great employees who need more stability. That said, I've not worked for a company where so many former employees have returned.
