    I worked at Vision-Box full-time for more than 3 years

    Pros

    Business area is very interesting. A lot of talented employees across all teams. Casual and very friendly environment.

    Cons

    Bad management that extends from the company partners all the way to some of the team leaders. Company is always selling products that doesn't exist yet with impossible delivery timelines that forces people to work extra hours almost daily. Management rewards teams that have an "hack anything just for the delivery" mentality and bad practices. Penalizes teams with good practices. Every 2/3 years makes a... revolution in the organization of teams instead of solving their real issues. The last one was to organize the company with a structure of a consultant firm.

    Advice to Management

    Great technology, well respected in the marketplace, the UK office has a very mature attitude to employees, feel trusted and respected

    Hours can be long, and expectations high but flexible approach means you can have a good work/life balance

    Advice to Management

    None really, I have been here a while and the growth has been impressive, sometimes painfully fast, but the right attitude from management and the right people means it is going in the right direction.

    I worked at Vision-Box full-time for more than a year

    Pros

    Great peers, and probably above average salary.

    Cons

    The company is completely unstructured and miss all the deadlines. As a result a lot pressure is put in everyone. No one is able to assume responsability and there is a lot finger pointing mentality.
