Executive leadership and my colleagues are some of the smartest, most talented, and inspiring people I've ever worked with and I'm supported, encouraged, and empowered in a way that I couldn't have even dreamed of. From day one, I've been completely trusted to implement new ideas and processes, even though they were often major deviation from how things had been done. That level of trust truly starts at the top and works its way down and is a huge part of why the culture at Verified First is so amazing.
Everyone is wildly supportive of their peers and takes extreme ownership of the results - we win together and we learn together. We enter each month with WIG's (Wildly Important Goals) and when we hit them (and we usually do), we celebrate success as a whole company and do it in a big way - swag, parties, movies, etc.
This really is an extraordinary place to work and I really mean it when I say that this place is changing lives.
Cons
The pace is fast, really fast, like break-neckingly fast. Sometimes it can be overwhelming, and that's coming from someone who often has to wait for others to catch up. If you have a hard time with change, this is not the job for you.

Thank you so much for the kind words! We definitely move at a fast pace, and realize it might not be for everyone, but we're "pumped" that it works for you, and look forward to continuing to impress our rock star employees!

Pros
There are some amazing people at the organization.
Cons
The level or micromanagement is unlike I have ever seen in my career. Only certain employees are allowed laptops so they are forced to work at their desks and good luck working at a conference. You literally have to email all of management and the team your “end of day” including a task list of what you did for the day…because you know they can’t pull a sales report. But they do, that is sent every morning! Additionally they have click tracking software installed on all the sales teams computers. Your phone calls are recorded and sales meetings video recorded. You have ZERO autonomy at this company.
Leadership has no trust in their employees. Ironic for a company who attempted to utilize prison labor to cut costs. VF sister company Safety Security ended up in litigation for this exact reason.
If you could background screen the company on ethics they would fail. They discriminate against female employees, harassment has been a documented issue that is swept under the rug.
Additionally their pay (base/commission) is far below other companies in the market. Six different employees expressed that they were lied to about the commission structure and pay by sales leadership and nothing was ever addressed.
