Pros

It is a great place to work if you need 2 to 3 months more worked time to get your UI. Just look at the CEO or comment on one of his ideas and get a free pass to UI. It is a great chance to grow as the churn of employees is great.

Cons

Well over the last 10 years Vircom has gone from 100 to 19 people !!! each one has less then 3 yrs experience, serious. Over the last 2 months Vircom's senior developper has left, Its Support Lead and pre sales rep have gone. We are in trouble and management puts pressure on those who honestly dont know. The company is in a low budget building which loses power on a quarterly basis, We support clients worldwide but are not a global company. we have no CRM No tangible plans for the future and over the last many years we never stuck to a plan. Maybe we need someone with management and planning skills

Pros

Some really great people somehow managed to get roped into working there.

Cons

Where to begin? CEO holds monthly meetings to essentially paraphrase the last Steve Jobs or Richard Branson editorial he read; even if it contradicts LAST month's 'blueprint to success'. There were 3 burnouts in progress (out of appx. 15 total employees at last count) during my employment there. Simultaneously. New CEO is clearly motivated solely by a desire to give the place a fresh coat of paint and sell. While that's a great plan if there are only two people cashing in on that sale (sets 'em up for life) everyone who scrambled to meet those deadlines (did I mention the 3 burnouts?) is left behind, lucky to still have a job after the sale. However, if you want to be taken advantage of and led by a magic 8-ball, Vircom is the place for you.
