Verisign Work Experiences
- 1.0You cannot trust managementSoftware Engineer III • Current EmployeeReston, Virginia, United StatesJune 4, 2025Pros: The company's mission is valuable, rewarding, and satisfying. This is the biggest plus by far. Salary is nice. Logo looks okay.Cons: Bad management: There are a few seriously spoiled apples in low to mid management, and upper management has no clue. They *promised* (in writing) that Verisign would stay in fully remote mode even after the pandemic. And now they force the employees back into the office, for now only 2 days, but we know where this is heading. You cannot trust management on any level. Run if you have other options.
