Pros

Flexible work schedule and nice co-workers.

Cons

-This company is going through change constantly. “Growing” through acquisition. -Salaries paid are low compared to similar organizations. -There are very few good leaders, and those that lead are getting burned out or simply leaving. -Virtually no real training is provided to folks beyond the catalog of old and outdated online courses. Thanks, but no thanks. -6 months into the year, some team members still don’t have comp. plans and haven’t been informed of when they’ll get paid out on recent upsells/cross-sells. -There is little (or improper) QA being performed after releases, leading to what seems to be preventable issues. -Constant internal issues with phone systems and email.

Thank you for your candid feedback. We carefully consider all reviews to help us see how we can improve. Regarding your query, as our new team members know, our primary growth strategy is through mergers and acquisitions – as such, we are integrating new companies and trying to improve procedures to best fit all our needs as well develop a strong strategy for continued growth for everyone moving forward. And while this may at times translate into a delay in processes, the result is more beneficial for everyone in the long run. We value our employees and are always looking for ways to show our appreciation, whether it be through company-wide shout outs or monetary bonuses. As an organization, we work to create partnerships with all our employees through our career path planning, which allows employees to take control of their own career development while management provides tools to help them achieve their goals. As for management, every department operates differently, but we all do our best to uphold our company values and recognize those who work hard.

Pros

It's a job and some of the people are great, remote/hybrid work for some employees

Cons

There is literally zero incentive to work hard or even try above the bare minimum. No real career paths or progression, no bonuses, nothing. Individual goals mean nothing and do not connect to larger company goals. Leadership is feckless and has to revisit the same decision constantly or has to make a decision involving way more people than necessary which means the final decision is bloated and difficult to operationalize. The company goals are not clear at all so work priorities constantly shift to whatever leadership has most recently decided, through a committee, is most important. There is basically nothing in terms of company culture. People don't talk to each other about anything. There is no fun in Teams channels. This probably stems from all of the above, that people do not feel at all connected to the company because they know they are not going to get anything out of it. Oh, and the benefits are abysmal.

Thank you for sharing this feedback. We’re sorry this has been your experience, and we take comments like this seriously. Vector is a mission-driven company serving customers in critical industries, including public safety, education, industrial, government, healthcare, and other organizations that rely on our technology to help make people safer, smarter, and better prepared. We are proud of that work and of the team members who support it every day. Vector has implemented many positive changes over the years based directly on team member feedback, and we continue to welcome input across all areas of the business. We recognize that benefits, career growth, priorities, and culture can be experienced differently by different people. We do offer a comprehensive benefits program that includes health coverage, 401k support, flexible paid time off, wellness programs, tuition reimbursement, and other resources; Growth Pathways to help team members understand career progression; and companywide initiatives such as Team Member Appreciation Week, Vector Volunteer Week, holiday events, and special commemorations to help build connection and culture. We also understand the concern around shifting priorities. Like many companies, Vector operates in an ever-changing economic landscape. As market needs evolve, we have to evaluate and adjust priorities to keep the business growing, serve our customers well, and support the team members who drive our success. We will not dismiss feedback simply because it is difficult to read. We have meaningful work, a strong team, and a lot to be proud of, but we also have work to do. We appreciate your perspective and will continue working to make Vector a better place to build a career.
