Avoid! Please read this if you're thinking about joining. You have been warned! - Anonymous employee Voleon Employee Review

To start out, there are lots of exaggerations and outright lies from recruiters and hiring managers to get you to join, take everything they say with a huge grain of salt. One thing to note is that they will almost surely refuse to answer some of your questions due to confidentiality or the like as a way to dodge it. If you're currently interviewing, watch out for red flags! Career path is extremely limited and zero time is spent on career development or talking about your own goals and how you can succeed within the firm. A lot of micromanagement and middle managers are stuck in old ways with no willingness to change, if you have any ideas that do not align with the status quo you will be very frustrated. If you're joining during WFH, know that the office is in a pretty sketchy area and in pretty bad condition, forget about good office perks despite them trying to sell it as a tech firm. Despite being a specialized finance/tech company, IT is clueless and you're pretty much left to figure things out on your own if it's not basic things like login issues. Despite talk about cooperation and teamwork, teams are very segregated and there is no team culture (this obviously depends on what team you are in), you very rarely interact with anyone else. Tech is very dated, both internally and tools, if there is a free version that "kind of works" then they are using it (ask them what chat app they are using!). This leads to a very frustrating day to day experience as you're constantly fighting with the tech to get things done. Penny pinching management, hard to get approval even for small things, and forget about things like a corporate cell phone (or even a plan!) even when you need it for work. When we return to the office they are apparently not bringing back the free lunch (and paid options in that area is limited). Leadership is AWOL with very little information disseminated during the rare all hands meetings. And why isn't the CEO/founders leading (or even being part of) the all hands?! Benefits are very basic, decent healthcare but no 401k match (recruiters will tell you it's coming any day now, but don't trust them, it's not happening) and not much else. No mental health benefits outside of regular health insurance. No covid-related benefits like online doctor visits or a home office stipend. Hiring protocol is disorganized at best with very little (if any) focus on "soft skills", resulting in some VERY questionable hires. Recruiters are desperate to close the requisition and don't care about any red flags in the candidates. High turnover - for obvious reasons. They are also growing very fast with little regard for how to scale properly which creates a very disorganized and chaotic environment. To summarize, stay away, you truly don't want to work here unless you have literally no other options.
