Pros

Growing company and opportunities to learn new skills

Cons

Even though you may be given opportunities to learn new skills, you’ll be expected to take on new work after learning such skills and you’ll never be paid for it. Pay is often low and not competitive, the benefits are insanely poor and honestly embarrassing, the company environment is super negative and toxic—but the worst part of all is management. The overall company management is super controlling and out of touch with employee needs. You’re expected to work to the bone and be grateful for the opportunity. Getting raises is like pulling teeth without numbing and the outcome is often disheartening. Management truly doesn’t care about employee satisfaction, whether it’s about pay, the environment, work–life balance, benefits, you name it. I would never recommend working here to anyone. I was given a lot of opportunities, but I was underpaid, overworked, ignored, talked down to, and manipulated every single day. This place has a high turnover rate for a reason.

Thank you for your feedback. We have a few thoughts regarding your concerns, and wish to correct the misrepresentations included in your review. We are sorry to learn about your dissatisfaction with our company benefits, as we have made great strides in revamping our offerings over the years. In addition to our standard benefits package, we have also implemented a Professional Development Reimbursement Program, higher PTO accrual rates, and during the recent COVID-19 pandemic, introduced a company-wide Community Give Back program. Weris conducted an Employee Engagement Survey to collect feedback on a wide range of topics to assess employee satisfaction and received an overwhelming high rate of positive feedback from our employees. One of our highest scoring areas was the strength of our leadership, as employees feel trusted, respected, and supported by management. We also developed a “Coffee with the President” program to allow employees to have 1-1 conversations with our President to speak on career goals and growth opportunities within the company. Our turnover rate is not high and is in line with similar employers within our industry. We understand that we cannot satisfy all employees all the time, but overall, employees thrive at Weris. Our staff enjoy their work and regularly seek out and find new opportunities for personal and professional growth within our company. We are glad to see you felt that opportunities were provided to you to learn new skills. Professional growth is a progressive journey involving not only employee initiative and development of new skills, but also available business opportunities. We wish you continued growth and success in your professional career. - Weris Human Resources

Pros

Weris is grounded in the value that people matter. The president treats people kindly and respectfully in professional and personal settings. He sets the tone for Weris.

Cons

Weris uses a payroll company called Insperity to manage its payroll and benefits. Also, it used to send Christmas gifts to each employee and now holds a Christmas party instead. If you like company parties, then they hold good ones. The gifts were super nice, though.
