Pros

- fast growing company, lots of opportunity - fast paced and highly productive environment - high-impact work benefiting Life Sciences - Employee development budget, supported internal transfers, company equity

Cons

There are always trade-offs. At Veeva you can move fast in deliverying high impact functionality which increases speed and effectiveness of Life Sciences. What empowers us to move fast is leveraging our Vault platform. Using an app development platform does mean less freedom to pick new technologies, use managed services in the cloud etc (there are "guard-rails" that allow us to move fast, but they do present some limitations). Using an industry leading platform can be a significant "Pro" for many, but for some that wish to grab the latest cloud tech off the shelf it may be considered a "con".

Pros

The role involves a lot of repetitive tasks. Depending on your personality, that either makes the job easier over time as you become more efficient, or it gradually becomes frustrating. The upside is that once you learn the role, it can serve as a strong stepping stone to move into other positions within the company.

Cons

It's a repetitive, call-center type role. Once you're in it, there isn't much room to grow within the department. Most people either stay and plateau or eventually move to another department before the repetition and workload lead to burnout.

Pros

Large presence in the industry and good-hearted, intelligent, and well-meaning people work there. Stable company, not going to be purchased by private equity and endure large layoffs

Cons

part of their motto is "do the right thing" but that's not applied when it comes to salaries or work-life balance. working weekends and well past normal hours seems to be a regular thing that most people are doing. a manager's solution to my issue of having more work than was feasible to complete was just to work longer days. "Veeva Speed" is a sugarcoated phrase everyone uses to indicate being overworked and initial training is like drinking from a fire hose; this company makes enough money to hire the correct amount of people to do the work and pay them fairly.
