Pros

Creating digital work packages and moving the company into the 21st century is very rewarding

Cons

Where do I begin! The department I work in just flat out sucks. Absolutely zero support. Upward mobility is extremely difficult despite going above and beyond. They preach on cost but programs constantly crash, up stream customers cause issues with staying on schedule causing upper management to get hostile and force you to work long hours, sometimes mandatory overtime, and when you have cost saving solutions they put your nose up to you. Managers don’t listen, you’re just a number and they micromanage to an extreme extent. Pay raises have been more than awful, averaging less than 2% YOY. Underpaid for the work, claiming a title change soon yet zero talks of that happening lately and it’s been almost 2 years. No communication & just really crap morale. I would stay far away from the VWI team.

Pros

Remote Work, Flex Schedule, Benefits are decent enough.

Cons

It is very much a boys club between management, leads, and HR. HR is there to protect the company, not you. The moment you have something crazy happen (and you will because most people in positions of power are old retired navy guys who cant even work a computer usually and would rather praddle on about "the good ole days") and you report it to HR, you immediately will be retaliated against, even when HR says you wont. Its tough to say how you wont when they immediately inform your supervisor. I also hate how they are an "inclusive" company, and yet I have been called more slurs and received more backlash for being LGBT when its not even being presented, I just want to log in, work, ask questions, log off.
