Great Benefits, Terrible Balance
Great Benefits, Terrible Balance
The company offers excellent benefits, a hybrid work model (with the option to work 100% remotely), conveniently located offices, and an impressive product.
Via has become a highly corporate environment, where upper management may not always be fully aware of the various departments within the company. It can be an extremely demanding workplace with little to no work-life balance. Employees are expected to complete their tasks by set deadlines, often requiring extra hours and weekend work. Management is fully aware of these demands.
The Via system is highly complex, and retaining employees with in-depth knowledge of it is essential.
Consider offering slight pay increases and introducing bonuses for non-partner-facing staff.
Frequent restructuring and shifting roles only create confusion and lower morale. It's important not to stifle ambition—this isn't the military. Employees shouldn’t be expected to follow decisions made in a quick meeting in NY without understanding their roles or the full context.

Asked me to fix some provided code. I gave him a few answers, but it wasn't enough. Then, it took them almost 2 weeks to return an answer, and it was in the mail.
