Pros
This company employs some great people, and as a fully remote job, you are able to work with folks across the US, who you might not otherwise have met or had a chance to work with. Salaries are also competitive for the market, with some huge caveats (see Cons below).
Cons
Leadership is very opaque, and business decisions appear to be made on a whim (without data or obvious rationale to back them up). Since I was hired, there have been two major layoffs in which managers and coworkers were blindsided and unable to prepare their teams, so a lot of work was never properly transitioned. In both cases, the layoffs were handled poorly. Very little if any communication was given to managers about the layoffs or how to handle them, and people were let go en masse via blinded zoom call with a very impersonal, cold, and scripted message. The company claims to be people-first and provides lots of expensive gifts (birthday cakes, swag, gift cards, etc) even while they are laying people off, which is both disingenuous and disrespectful to the people who are let go. After the first layoff, remaining employees were told that the decision was difficult and that it would not happen again, but 3 months later, it did. They also let go of a high-level department head but told the company that the individual resigned (which was a blatant lie). If you are considering this company, be very cautious and don’t expect extensive training, comprehensive processes, or direction. And don’t expect to be employed for very long. I left a good company going through some rocky times for Vaniam because I was sold on a great working environment with strong, people-centered values, which has proven to be a complete sham. It’s honestly shocking to me how blatant their lack of concern and empathy is for their employees. If you are looking for a short-lived transition job with a high salary, give it a shot if you’ve got nothing better to do. But if you want a serious career and expect to be treated like a competent human being with useful skills, definitely a hard pass.
