Pros

They give you a higher paycheck than you ask for.

Cons

This is a toxic and unprofessional set-up. They've changed name from ARI Network Services to LeadVenture so you can't see the old reviews. HR has populated new reviews with so much positivity that you can tell its fake. The India VP is driven by ego and the desire to hear himself talk. All his closest allies in office are just like him. Workwise there's not much to do as you're just the support team for US offices. There's much potential for growth but it won't happen under this VP because his focus is elsewhere. He micromanages everything and since he has no ideas, you can't really take things to the next level. So you have a big paycheck for just mostly sitting around. Lots of needless drama and gossip because that's the tone set by the VP and his closest allies. Some people get more leaves than officially allowed while others get none. Depends on how cozy a relationship you have with him. Some people have roles they can't execute because they don't have the skills or qualifications required. It's a mess.

Pros

I’ve had a very positive experience working at LeadVenture. The culture is collaborative, supportive, and focused on continuous learning and growth. Leadership encourages innovation and gives employees opportunities to contribute meaningful ideas and take ownership of their work. One thing I especially appreciate is the emphasis on professional development and teamwork. Colleagues are approachable, knowledgeable, and genuinely willing to help each other succeed. The company also does a good job of adapting to change and encouraging new ways of thinking. I would recommend this company to professionals looking for a place where they can grow their skills, collaborate with talented people, and make an impact.

Cons

Like any organization, there are areas that could continue to improve, particularly around prioritization and communication during fast-moving initiatives, but overall the environment is motivating and rewarding.

Pros

Paid time off, work from home, the people at the Canton NY branch are great.

Cons

LeadVenture corporate does not value their employees and off shores or eliminates important roles at their brands without having any real understanding of what that's going to do to their ability to operate. Multiple years with no raises. Developers are handed constantly changing priorities where important projects are left unfinished for a more important project which is left unfinished for a more important project ect. You will feel like you have no job stability and it's probably wise for you to feel that way. The CEO once mentioned in a company wide meeting that the company's only profitable brands were it's newest acquisitions, which is an interesting way to tell everyone that the longer you manage a company the less profitable it becomes. Zero attempt to preserve existing company cultures at acquired brands, that mixed with everything else means terrible employee satisfaction. They do not care for their customers at all, a major source of culture clash with our company pre-aquisition where customer service and reputation was a particularly strong point. I can only imagine they've tanked our previously stellar net promoter score which again hurt employee satisfaction.
