Pros

Free coffee, Nice facilities, decent benefits

Cons

* There is an ungodly amount of Nepotism and favoritism from the bottom all the way to the top. Good luck moving up, it’s nearly impossible with the amount of nepotism. Basically have to be born or married into the company to move up. * great idea of the so called culture but unfortunately it’s producing a bunch of whiny entitled employees and work ethic and results are drastically declining because of it. The culture only applies to people who have deep ties within the company. *extremely toxic leadership. A lot of do as I say, not as I do.

Viasat Response

For over 20 years Viasat’s turnover rate has been about half the high tech average. So it’s no surprise that employees have been eager to refer us to their classmates, former colleagues, friends, and even family members! And regardless of any connections outside of the office, all leaders are coached to drive high performance and accountability across their teams. We’re sorry to hear you’ve had a negative experience so far. We want to encourage you to speak with your supervisor or P&C Business Partner so that we can better understand your concerns and work together to try and find resolution. We look forward to seeing all of the great things you'll accomplish at Viasat.
