Avoid working here or doing business with Viscira at all costs. I would give a negative rating if possible
Pros
No positives for Viscira. This is hands down the worst place I've had the misfortune to work at. Do not waste a single moment even applying for a position here.
Cons
- Poor leadership at all levels. CEO Dave Gulezian (DG) has no people or leadership skills. All leadership positions within the company are filled by people with DG's same lack of skills. - No work-life balance for anyone but the execs. People are expected to work weeks on end including weekends without a day off due to unrealistic schedules and dates. - Employee turn over has to be above 90%. Very few people stay a full year. Burn-out is evident everywhere in the office. Not a happy place to work. - Resourcing is treated like a big game and people log hours to lock-up certain people because the company is too cheap to staff properly. The two weekly resourcing meetings are a complete waste of several hours of work time. - Lack of necessary equipment to complete work. Laptops and desktops that are several years old and do not work properly, insufficient mobile hardware for Production and QA teams and severe push back when software for everyday work is needed. - Expect an initial offer $20K less than your salary at your last place of employment. Push back and try to get more if you must work here.
