Veeva Systems Work Experiences
5.0
A wonderful company to work for
Software Engineer • Current Employee
Pleasanton, California, United States
May 17, 2021
Pros: - Thoughtful CEO on a mission to build modern software solutions for the life science industry.
- Friendly co-workers and a healthy work culture (WLB is what you make it to be).
- Free food (when working in person at HQ).
Cons: It's enterprise software for a heavily-regulated industry. This means there are lots of restrictions on how the products should work, but obviously, that can't be helped.
2.0
Good in the past, but increasingly difficult
Software Engineer • Former Employee
Pleasanton, California, United States
September 28, 2015
Pros: Great new building.
Technically challenging work.
Cons: Ageism has unfortunately become a problem.
An amazing new building pumped up some egos. A lot of very aggressive, over-ambitious types.
Work-life balance is touted on the website but left in the dust by middle managers.
It's more difficult to move into different departments. VP and Director level managers increasingly want only genius-level people from top schools.
