Pros

I've been a Verasolve team member for almost five years and have been fortunate enough to see the company grow and thrive. I've had the opportunity to work with clients in a wide variety of industries and have gained valuable tactical and strategic experience. Our team is highly collaborative and we genuinely enjoy bouncing ideas off of each other and learning from one another. With less than 20 employees, we have a very startup/entrepreneurial feel where everyone takes part in helping to shape the corporate culture and provide opinions on the direction of the company. Verasolve also offers flexible hours and options to work from home, helping to give employees a good work-life balance.

Cons

Verasolve's startup/entrepreneurial feel may not be for everyone. You're expected to hit the ground running and, at times, make decisions with little information and no direction. This might be challenging for someone who's used to more structured, procedure-driven environments. Location might also be a negative for some people since Verasolve isn't Metro accessible. You must own a car to get here.

Very positive and productive work environment. Everyone was friendly and helpful. Flexible hours and there are some opportunities to work remotely. I learned a lot about different industries and gained experience creating content for a variety of businesses. All my work received constructive feedback, which allowed me to take note of where I needed to improve.

Cons

I have no negative comments about the position.

Pros

Location, work setting, co-workers, some client work

Cons

No benefits. No upward mobility. Below average pay. The way the company is structured, you are set up to fail. There is a lot expected of the employees but very little given in return. Client retention is your responsibility although the clients are sold on unrealistic expectations by the business development team. Some BD team members bit-foot managers any time there is a client issue, leading to a lack of faith in the manager by the client and resentment toward the BD staff. BD team thinks they are marketing/PR professionals and lead clients to believe they are involved in the day-to-day, which is not the case unless there is an issue. Client managers have no support staff -- expected to create strategy, hold meetings, manage projects, create deliverables for a minimum of four clients at a time, all for the client price of $5500 a month. This is all very bad for morale.
