VIDA Diagnostics Reviews

Management is over paid while everyone under is underpaid. Too many people getting over paid while the people who actually do most of the work are underpaid and unappreciated. Management talks about how we are a family but when it comes down to it they are quick to let you go. CEO and COO both work from California while the company's HQ is in Iowa and a small office in Minnesota. CEO and COO show their faces at the offices once a month. They talk about how much they appreciating the employees while they get paid to make conference calls and critique everyone. Instead of letting go of people they should take a cut on their salary and move to where the company is based. Do not work here if you plan on making more than what they initially offer you. Bonuses are sweatshirts given at the Christmas party and benefits are bad. Raises are promised but never given. They talk about how good the company is doing but it does not reflect on employee salaries only on theirs. Be careful when applying I will never work for VIDA again. 3 tiers of vacation. all new lower management employees have 10 paid pto/vacation/sick days. Managers or over 4 years employment have 15 days pto/vacation/sick . Management/executives/7+ years have 20+ days of pto/vacation/sick. If I could give management 0 stars I would.

It is a small company, so many times you are expected to wear many hats, which can be exciting and stressful all at the same time. It's a small, nimble company, so it may not be a good fit for individuals who are used to corporate politics or layers of management and approvals. It's a cultural shift for those who are used to big corporations and the pressures that go along with that.
