Pros

I've been working at Vanilla Forums for two years and I can unabashedly say that this is the best company I have worked for. Management and Executives have done an incredible job hiring and building a cohesive team from Sales, to Developers, to Customer Success. The company is extremely flexible when it comes to work/life balancing and I have never felt micromanaged. If I needed to take time off it was an easy request that was always approved and with how the team is set up, we always covered each other when on vacation. There has been great opportunity to grow into my role as Senior CSM as I was able to achieve this position within the 2 years I worked here, especially coming from a Sales and having no Customer Success Experience. The benefits plan is fantastic as well along with the paid vacation, personal days, and sick days. Fair and balanced pay that is up to the positions median in the area.

Cons

The only negatives come from typical growing pains. There is not enough technical resources available to the Custoemr Success team to efficiently do our jobs. The Support development teams need more developers as well. There is no company RRSP matching

Pros

Vanilla has an awesome work environment that offers the perfect blend of hard work fun and commitment to its customers.

Cons

They complete against large software companies that have massive product portfolios and access to other resources and technologies which can make it hard to win competitive sales cycles.

Pros

Vanilla is a great company to work for, they really make employees feel appreciated and have a great company culture. Colleagues are wonderfully helpful and encouraging.

Cons

If you don't have a tech background (as I didn't) there will be a learning curve, but they're very supportive and understanding of the time it takes to become comfortable with the software.
