Pros

The building the company leases their office space in is nice. Convenient location to the beltway.

Cons

Inside sales position's receive little to no training on required job functions by upper management and the Outside Account Managers they support. This causes an increased learning curve and turn over rate. Micromanagement on inputting SalesForce activities create a tension between inside sales team and upper management. A lack on communication between outside account managers, inside account managers, and project managers cause a lot of project completion issues. There is a frat boy culture, its more about being liked than doing your job. There are egos within the company that are more important than the bottom line. Tread carefully on who you stand your ground with if you want to keep your job. Make sure to get a clear and written statement for pay and commission if you are in sales.

Pros

the people here are a great set of people. they want to help you become your best in this industry.

Cons

McLean traffic, as always, is horrendous. This location is too close to the mall. you will hit the mall traffic during lunches and traffic going out at 5:30PM

Pros

Nice building location in Tyson's Corner and few welcoming people in the organization. Easy to land a order management job if you are fresh out of college or new to corporate work. Relatively good health benefits

Cons

- No onboarding support - No formal training process (the role is "trained" by a new resource looking over the shoulder of another as the incumbent does their work and must meet their quota demand) - Unreasonable standards within first weeks of hiring - No structured hours in the workday - Abysmal compensation - far below market rate - No rewards for staying in the office at 3am to end of fiscal year needs - actually no, they'll provide $13 of greasy Chinese food. - In 2015, VSGI was using SQL from the 80s.... Leadership is a loose term. They are friendly but unhelpful. Leaders in title only.
