Pros

Lovely people at the individual contributor and team manager level Collaborative environment Good project management and customer service experience Good development opportunity for new grads/early career or new to SaaS

Cons

Low Pay - company shares that it benchmarks salaries with third party provider, but perhaps the calibration has room for improvement. The leaders responsible for setting the salary bands may not have a full understanding of the demands of the job and skills required, as this feedback of low pay is consistent on many reviews here, as well as among current staff. Implementation Manager salaries seem to be significantly below market, and turnover has been quite high as a result. In the past 5 months, a good number of my colleagues have left for roles paying significantly more than NAVEX. Benefits are just ok for SaaS. There are no healthcare plans with fully paid premiums. With company being remote, there are no home office setup stipends or personal development/wellness stipends that other companies may have. Interdepartmental communication has significant room for improvement. There were multiple times where Implementation was not kept informed of important changes that impacted our interactions customers. Work/life balance used to be ok when I started, but has not been good recently. There is pressure to meet your performance metrics while being overloaded with projects. It's nearly impossible to get everything done in a normal work day, causing many to regularly work well over 40 hour weeks.

Pros

Team Culture Flexible Schedule (hybrid model) Entry level pay is great

Cons

The position that was presented during the hiring process was not the position that was ultimately delivered. Employees have very little influence over organizational decisions; the prevailing message is to either accept ongoing changes or move on. The company sets exceptionally high performance expectations but does not appear to fully recognize how constant organizational changes, limited job security, frequent separations and internal restructuring, and unmet commitments can directly impact employees' ability to succeed. These factors create significant obstacles to achieving the standards the company expects.
