Visual Antidote Reviews

We appreciate the opportunity to respond to this review as it is our first negative review, and comes *three years* since this person was employed by us, and just a few weeks after we refused a request from them to provide a positive reference, as we couldn’t honestly do this. Given the timing and the context, the review seems more of a “spiteful-get back at you” than objective feedback. What this former employee failed to realize, and apparently still doesn't understand, is that we are not a software development firm and do not represent ourselves as such. We are a consulting company that provides technical services to a broad range of clients, many of whom continue to work with us for many years (several over a decade) based on the high quality of service, value and sense of trust we provide to them. He is also confusing professionalism with his coding standards/expectations. We are trusted by a broad range of regulatory bodies, unions and associations because of our high standards of professionalism and excellent reputation in the industry for over sixteen years. We are a small and growing company of sixteen staff, and have five employees that have worked with us for a decade or longer. We have added a lot of enhanced practices since this employee joined, some of which he has outlined, along with generous health and other benefits. We poll our employees and take their input and opinions very seriously. One member of the management team running the company joined us a little over six years ago in the position of Junior Developer - we are an organization where we reward work and dynamism and want to see our team thrive and grow, and celebrate initiative and competence. The comment about nepotism is out of place. There was a period of four years where a separate company 'Fast Forms' was being run out of the same office by a family member (CEO’s wife). It was sold several years ago and there are no family or related employees at the firm, nor would it have impacted this employee as he did not work for Fast Forms in any capacity. We wish you the best of luck in the future.
