Pros

- Colleagues who joined before 2023 were genuine and hardworking, keeping the company afloat with duct-taped processes and hacky spreadsheets. - Unlimited PTO and flex time

Cons

- Near-constant leadership churn since 2022 has gutted the company. Each new executive team talks big, makes no bold moves, and then vanishes, leaving behind chaos, whiplash, and zero accountability. - Burnout is the default. Most teams have been downsized, demoralized, or both. New hires are thrown into political free-for-alls, with no resources or career development. - Velocity Global has become the corporate Ship of Theseus. With every leadership swap and mass layoff, another plank of the original company is ripped out. What remains is unrecognizable - a hollow, sinking vessel. - What could have been a category leader is now a cautionary tale: a first mover that squandered time. There is no innovation or escape velocity, only a slow-motion collapse that traps good people in dead-end roles. - Joining this company is career quicksand.

Pros

- Teams are incredibly dedicated, collaborative, and always willing to support one another through challenging transitions. - Strong focus on actively listening to and advocating for customers' needs at the team level.

Cons

- Executive leadership frequently dismisses employee concerns during all-hands calls and relies on empty promises to manage morale. - The company has gone through multiple rounds of layoffs with zero internal communication or accountability. Employees often only discover colleagues have been let go when they suddenly disappear from communication channels. - Following major organizational shifts, leadership failed to re-align priorities. This created an environment devoid of unified goals, leading to silos and internal division. - Despite the chaotic environment, the frontline employees work incredibly hard but receive little to no recognition or support from upper management.
