Pros

We work hard and we play hard. As long as you are focused and driven to succeed you are empowered to work with autonomy. Leadership truly cares for everyone that works here and goes the extra mile to make sure you are heard and you are happy. I have worked for companies from a 15 employee mom and pop restaurant to a 10,000+ fortune 500 company. I always thought company culture was about image and branding before I started with VF. Here it is about the people, how we feel, how we act, how we treat each other, how hard we work, how dedicated we are day in and day out. This company is truly an amazing place to work because of its well-defined culture.

Cons

I don't know if I would even consider this a con, we move really really fast. It is probably the most difficult part of my job. Yet, I love it.

Pros

There are some amazing people at the organization.

Cons

The level or micromanagement is unlike I have ever seen in my career. Only certain employees are allowed laptops so they are forced to work at their desks and good luck working at a conference. You literally have to email all of management and the team your “end of day” including a task list of what you did for the day…because you know they can’t pull a sales report. But they do, that is sent every morning! Additionally they have click tracking software installed on all the sales teams computers. Your phone calls are recorded and sales meetings video recorded. You have ZERO autonomy at this company. Leadership has no trust in their employees. Ironic for a company who attempted to utilize prison labor to cut costs. VF sister company Safety Security ended up in litigation for this exact reason. If you could background screen the company on ethics they would fail. They discriminate against female employees, harassment has been a documented issue that is swept under the rug. Additionally their pay (base/commission) is far below other companies in the market. Six different employees expressed that they were lied to about the commission structure and pay by sales leadership and nothing was ever addressed.
