Vercel Reviews

Senior management is full of "bro culture" nepotism. The values are almost as if a child wrote them, and senior leadership ignores all toxicity complaints. Ask around with the former employees. If you disagree with a senior leader too many times, you can essentially expect to be demoted or even terminated. This pattern has happened to over half a dozen people in the last 12 months. The CEO is either entirely oblivious or doesn't care, and the C-suite execs are the offenders with nepotism and a clique mentality. People are being intimidated, forced to comply, and being stuck in absolutely ridiculous positions because they live in fear of losing their financial stability. Trust me when I tell you, a company that de-prioritizes or ignores their culture IS a toxic culture.

I was sold the dream of Vercel. This place was such an incredible disappointment. In the field org, senior management is atrocious. Full of first time senior leaders who lack vision, business acumen, and basic people management skills. Their reactive nature will end up creating a culture of distrust. Some additional poor management qualities include: - intimidation of employees - lack of transparency around key business decisions - siloed teams and lack of willingness to work cross-departmentally There are not many known pathways for individual contributors for career growth. Culture is siloed, too. The People Team is working diligently to build a good culture, but a good culture needs to exemplified by the top line leaders. Current culture in senior leadership is brooding, arrogant, and egotistical.
