Pros

Not many, if any. They have a number of huge clients which gives you the opportunity to see some amazing projects. - will reimburse you for professional licensing costs.

Cons

- The mass exodus of talent that has occurred within the past year due to extremely poor upper management. Approximately 10 people above Senior Associate level have left in the past calendar year, and many more in other positions. - The way the company rubs in your face how much you get billed out at and feeds nothing back into the company for employees. (They are one of the most expensive in the industry). - In addition saying the company is doing extremely well but gives its employees menial pay raises. - Demoralising, disrespecting employees who speak up. Pretending to have quarterly management forums where nothing is achieved. - No focus on how to grow employees. You are left to your own devices despite consistent badgering to want to grow and learn new skills. - Does not want to inject money into the company for new technology, software. They are getting left in the dust industry wise. - Have no concept about some of the talent or skills younger employees can inject into the company. - Will penny pinch their clients and employees for everything.

Pros

Vidaris is growing fast, but continues to carefully select candidates based on skills and education, making sure the company remains full of hard-working and intelligent employees. There always seems to be an opportunity to grow, if you are doing well, you will eventually move up, it might take a few years, but the company does not like to keep people in the same level for too long. I think the mentor program is a huge plus to the culture, you have support. The benefits are slowly improving as the company grows and compared to previous jobs, benefits are appropriate and competitive. There are plans to re-decorate and upgrade the office, I think this will improve the atmosphere and culture. I think the most important thing is the exposure to some of the best projects in the area, I wanted to work here to experience the projects and clients that will help me improve in my career and grow in the field of Engineering and Architecture.

Cons

Company intranet should be improved, not a good resource for information.
