Pros

I don't think there are any to mention. You will ONLY see positive comments from management to bring their ratings up on glassdoor.

Cons

Since the overtake of all the old school management taking over from last year, they have fired 40%+ of their employees and hired kids right out of college to replace. In some cases, they've hired grumpy senior citizens that HAD the credentials to think they could still do the job. Old school tactics don't work majority of the time. Moral has gone down and majority of the employees job is hanging by a thread. Training is made up as they go and always changing to whoever thinks it suites them. I'm glad I quit while I had the chance. I would not come back. They will burn bridges with everyone that leaves the company. When you apply at another job and that company tries to verify, Veeam HR will not call them back. Make sure you keep your W2 to prove that you worked there. There are many managers being pressured to making their numbers. 95% of them have taken the after Russian owner's mentality . Which is, produce the number or you'll be looking for another job.

Pros

Pay is good as well as benefits.

Cons

Poor organizational structure and lack of clarity: Roles, responsibilities, and reporting lines were confusing. This made collaboration and accountability very difficult. Nepotism and favoritism in leadership: Upper management heavily favored hiring and promoting people from their previous companies the "buddy system". Loyalty to personal networks appeared to matter more than competence or performance, which created cliques and made nonconnected employees feel like outsiders. Hypocritical company culture: Leadership frequently talked about "employee matters" values, strong culture, and employee well being, but in practice these were not reflected in actions. Layoffs, heavy workloads after staff reductions, and a focus on looking good on paper undermined any real trust. Frequent layoffs and job insecurity: Multiple rounds of layoffs created constant uncertainty. Remaining employees were expected to absorb significantly more work with fewer resources and little recognition or support. Heavy favoritism toward offshoring and lower cost international employees: Upper management strongly preferred hiring or retaining talent in countries with significantly lower cost of living because their lower salaries made departmental budgets and headcount metrics look better on paper. This resulted in U.S. based employees being disproportionately targeted in layoffs or overlooked for retention/promotion.
