Zero Stability and Leadership Lies - Quality Manager VERTEX Solutions Employee Review

As a fully remote software engineer, I am part of a swarm of new hires - most of the team has been there for less than a year. The team is smart and talented and seems to have been filtered to keep or jerks and aholes. The work involves learning a lot of interesting new skills and the structure is loose enough that you can choose your own path. So far, I am happy to have started my new job here. (I have already recommended working here to a friend.)

I see two challenges: First, as a fully remote team, we have to work harder to learn to trust and rely on each other. Second, as a relatively small company in a field dominated by industry giants, there is a speculative nature to the enterprise - it is hard to fully predict (for better and worse) what will happen in the next year, in the next few years.

Effective teamwork on-site and with teams at other locations nationwide. Lots of independence and collaboration for and among teams, within the restraints of contract and government regulations.

After losing the contract rebid, they did not pay accrued PTO. Over time, the C-Suite lost touch with the local teams. They stopped scheduling quarterly meetings that kept them connected to the teams and informed them of current and future endeavors.
