Pros

I worked at Veeva Systems for 3 years.

Pros of working here, sorted by most important to me:

  • My coworkers were very sharp.
  • The lunch meals were amazing and vegetarian-friendly.
  • The location was ideal (only a 20-minute commute on the scenic 680).
Cons

The tech stack was "enterprisey" and a lot of the work was not that interesting, at least for the first 4 or so months while I was getting acquainted with the codebase. Things did get better as I begun to understand and appreciate the business logic, but always, the work was very demanding.

Also, I felt I was slightly underpaid (then again, the stock did very well).

Advice to Management

Nothing much.
