One of the best companies to work for! - Senior Contracts Analyst VHR Employee Review

I was with VHR for more than two years and worked in their compliance / contracts department. One thing that I can say about this company is that it is one of the best (if not THE best) company I have ever worked for. Few aspects that make this company so good are: 1. It is very warm. You do not need to spend years in the company to feel like you are part of the family. Nowadays this is a pretty common thing to say - I currently work for a big multinational corporation and employees here also say that they feel like part of the family. But they say so because they have to. At VHR you honestly feel like part of a very big and nice family. 2. No matter what is your role, you get to own it. You get a lot of responsibilities but it is up to you to pick the way you want reach your goals. The balance between individualism and team work is just perfect. 3. There are a lot of perks that companies don’t generally offer. For example, you get to go to various trips (no no, not business trips but leisure!). VHR takes its employees to various countries for holidays just to say thank you for your hard work. 4. The structure is very flat. You can be an assistant or a director. In both cases you will be sitting at the same table and chatting to everyone as equals. People within the company tend to lead the way and show good examples themselves rather than push everyone from the back. 5. The owners of the company sit in the same open space and most of the time they are open for discussions. You can get answers to various queries very fast, which makes everyone’s work very efficient. Also, the owners of the company are really smart people and posses very wide knowledge in sales, compliance, legal, operations, etc. 6. HR is wonderful. For the company of this size, HR is incredible! They organise wonderful activities and you can always be sure that your voice will be heard. 7. If you have personal issues, the company will always accommodate your needs and will help you to deal with anything you are dealing with (of course, you have to accommodate the company’s needs, too!). 8. Personal development is very good. Even if you are a junior employee, you get to work on very high-level projects, which makes you learn a lot! You are constantly exposed to big decisions and you develop your knowledge at a very fast pace. I am sure there are things that I forgot to mention and I am sure I would not be able to write all of the good things here anyway. But certainly VHR is an incredible place to work!
