Pros

The pay is competitive and is the only reason most engineers stayed.

Cons

All positive reviews for this company are incentivized. Management believes "sex sells" and even replaced a male account rep with a female because "they need a woman in a skirt to make them happy" per a C-level executive High turnover(two mass layoffs of 25+ people during the year I was employed) Lack of billable projects resulted in engineers always worrying about their job Management encouraged lying to customers Practiced a "we will just give them a partial return if it sucks" mentality Lack of career growth plan

Pros

Great pay for SOME of the employees, but not all. Makes it hard to find another job because the pay is so high.

Cons

Owner places blame on anyone but himself for his failures and his lack of abilities of running a business. No shame in leaving both employees and customers high and dry. Purchased Bayshore Technologies for their successful (in business for ~18 years) professional services department. Vology failed 3 times trying to create a best of class professional services department. They recently laid off everyone in the professional services department and closed the professional services department with no warning to the employees or customers. This left customers with no one to complete the project that was in progress at the time of the closure of PS.

We regret when we have to make decisions like this and we wish everyone the best. It was a hard day for all of us and most especially for those impacted.

Pros

1. free food and alcohol during every brainwashing session. 2.They are really good at giving you the rah-rah dog and pony show before you start working there - harping on growth and opportunity. 3.People are encouraged to speak their mind.

Cons

1. Rotating doors in all management offices- In 5 months I had 4 managers/directors/C-level bosses. 2. See #2 above. But don't expect to see that - it's only for the CEO and CFO at everyone else's expense. Funny how they keep buying companies only to lay off everyone involved in that company's function . 3. The ideas practiced here are not original - they come up with their next big strategy and plan based on whatever book or speaker or friend the C-level execs are involved in. 4. See #3 above - but don't do that. You will get fired.
