Pros

- Some friendly coworkers - Interesting initiatives

Cons

Had to give my 2 cents after reading all these obviously fake reviews. 1. Management is atrocious. It was bad from the start and telling by the most recent negative reviews, it’s still bad. No sense of project management, I doubt anyone has formal training in it. 2. They expect you to hit the ground running after 1 month, which is hilarious and not at all the professional standard of 3 months. If an employee’s output isn’t adequate one month in, it’s because you haven’t trained them properly, or because you have outrageous standards. 3. The silver lining to the pandemic I guess is not dealing with the office. Constantly dirty with very little room to spare. Hopefully everyone’s working remotely and isn’t forced to go in. 4. Meetings were non existent and unprofessional. Instead of waiting for the meeting room to free up, some meetings would happen outdoors on the sidewalk with pedestrians and traffic passing by. 5. The CEO doesn’t know what he wants. They’ll hire people for low rates because of high turnover then fire them and continue the same cycle. He will also keep tabs on your public opinions constantly and begs employees to write positive Glassdoor reviews. 6. Loud and intimidating behaviour from upper management. They claim to be a family but know nothing about their employees and take advantage of people who are desperate for work.

It saddens us that you did not have a great experience, although we do appreciate that you were able to work on some interesting initiatives. We do continue to improve on our management and onboarding practices, so please bear with us while we evolve. On the Project Management front, we have encouraged and enabled our Project Managers to be Industry certified and to adopt industry best practices, which have been especially effective on how we now manage initiatives. Post-pandemic we have adopted a remote policy, which helped employees leverage flexible hours suitable to their life-style and has also led to improved productivity. We wish you all the best!

Pros

Vretta is a company that cannot be beaten in terms of job satisfaction. I was surrounded with people who were passionate about what they do and always helped when needed. They always wanted the best from me and made me want to be the best I could be. I had no complaints about working for Vretta. A great company and even better people.

Cons

I cannot think of any downsides to working with Vretta. The deadlines I personally had to meet were never unattainable and all people were understanding about any circumstances that may have caused me to be a day or two late on the deadline. No complaints
