Pros

There are genuinely great people working at FundamentalVR. The projects are great and have a meaningful impact. Good flexibility on hybrid work. Good team level managers.

Cons

The company preaches a culture with empathy and care for the employees, unfortunately it's all a facade that crumbled down multiple times as management took decisions that damaged their people, projects integrity and ultimately the company as a whole. The way high tier management handles crises and lay offs is extremely questionable. Insanely rigid SCRUM workflow.

Pros

I absolutely loved my 1Y 8M at FundamentalVR. The management was really good, and the corporate culture was also excellent. I promise you that I'm not pandering or being a sycophant here, but I'll tell you this: My manager was the best manager that I've ever worked for. They were very astute, smart, competent, AND FUN TO WORK WITH. They quickly could diagnose a problem, if it existed, and dealt with it proportionately. Also, my creative inputs and suggestions were given attention. Once I had a family emergency, and without hesitation, they gave me all the space that I needed, and they were a great emotional support for me. Lots of fond memories with all of them.

Cons

I don't have a con with FundamentalVR, but I really wish that the medical device companies were more accepting of our capabilities.

Pros

Enjoyed the sales team and co-workers.

Cons

A nice to have technology, not a need to have. Constant shifts in sales strategy during tenure. Very reactive versus proactive. Poor c-level leadership. Rarely allowed to put our best foot forward when pursuing a prospective client. Access to internal resources for sales pitches was restricted and micromanaged by c-level leadership.
