Pros

Vision6 is truly one of the best companies I have ever worked for. The culture is great and you get to work alongside brilliant and highly passionate individuals across all departments. Although the team is smaller than our competitors, everyone pitches in and works together to get the job done and done well! Work life balance is great - they are very understanding of family or personal commitments and arrange flexible working schedules when needed. The senior management team are down to earth, understanding people who genuinely listen to their staff. My manager in particular always pushes the team to learn and grow both professionally and personally. I feel supported - both at the upper management level, as well as a closer, team level. Peoples' opinions, ideas, and thoughts are always heard so everyone is given an opportunity to really make an impact.

Cons

More opportunities for team activities so that different departments can interact with each other and further build team rapport. (Although we do have annual retreats and company-wide happy hours.) Other than that, I don't have any cons in terms of management and processes.

Pros

From what I've experienced from working at Vision6, it is a progressive thinking SaaS business, that values its employees. I'm given enough trust and resources to succeed in my role and to achieve my goals, but with the support and backing to learn from mistakes, if made. If there are any tools and equipment I believe would allow me to carry out my role more efficiently and effectively, I have the confidence these would be supplied. Vision6 is very empathetic to family requires, and provides a flexible work environment that doesn't push guilt on an employee if they were to be sick, or had to tend to a family emergency. Time is allocated for me to set aside, allowing me to complete certificates and courses to further my industry knowledge, ultimately allowing me to perform better in my role. As well as this, time is also set aside so I can read industry-relevant news articles and white papers.

Cons

The team is small, so turning around a process change or project can be more lengthy than usual, but if you manage your time and expectations correctly, this isn't an issue. Opportunities for advancement would be smaller compared to a large organisation, but this is to be expected.

Pros

There is fruit, but also fruit flies... nobody talks to each other so if you like sitting in silence and walking on eggshells join Vision6. If you have a strong appreciation for double standards - this is the place to be and also if you're male... they love us.

Cons

This email marketing company goes through employees more than it goes through bug fixes. There is a very high chance you will not have a job within a year. Your ideas will be constantly put down until one day you just stop making suggestions. You definitely will not grow in your career and in some instances, staff were going backwards. The company has such low brand recognition compared to Campaign Monitor, MailChimp etc. that it's useless on a resume and comes with a stigma following. You would be better off taking a career break and going on the dole than applying for a job with Vision6. And let's not forget the low pay, ridiculously high expectations, embarrassingly bad code and little ambition to do anything about it but take advantage of the poor sods who still use this product.

Thank you for taking the time to post a review. I'm also very sorry your time here did not meet your expectations. While we try and make everyone’s experience here as enjoyable and rewarding as possible, sometimes you cannot please everyone all of the time. And in some instances, like any relationship, it doesn't always work out. We are a proud company that strives to be the best at what we do and try to acknowledge and incorporate the great ideas our team often puts forward. We have over 50 recent ideas logged in Jira and a little over 25% of them have already been implemented. Capterra also ranked Vision6 as being in the top 20 most user-friendly email marketing software applications and in the top 5 for customer support. Something that we are also very proud of as I feel this is a direct reflection of how motivated and innovative our team is. As we are also trying to continuously improve please feel free to contact me directly with ways in which we can better the things you suggest in your comments.
