Micromanagement and overtime with no positives - Sales Vertical Institute Employee Review

Hard to know where to start honestly. The office itself is stunning - floor to ceiling glass panels, really high ceilings. The only kind of space that makes me actually not mind staying late to work and chill. Not your typical cramped office setup at all,feels more like a premium tech company. Beyond the office aesthetics, company also has a strong mission. AI upskilling is not just a buzzword at this company - you can see it in every course they build and every client they bring on. The CEO is sharp, visionary and understands the AI and education industry inside out. The exposure you get here is also quite exceptional. Because the company works with a huge range of corporate clients across different sectors - finance, logistics, healthcare, gov & more - you end up building a network that would take years to develop elsewhere. Every week felt like you were learning something new about a different industry which kept things fresh and intellectually stimulating. Colleagues are ambitious but not cutthroat, good energy overall.

Pace is very fast and the bar is set high so if you need a very hand-holdy environment this might not suit you. Onboarding could be abit more structured for new joiners but to be fair the team is always willing to help if you ask. Growing company so some processes are still being refined,but thats also just part of being in a high-growth environment.

I spent almost 4 years at Vertical Institute and I could testify how they embrace every employees in the company. We always have a change to learn as long we own the campaigns we have set. The management support is also enormous which is a huge support to meet the OKRs each quarter. I have also witness some of the big hits in my campaigns but the senior management is always there and step up to assist my team, ask what need to recover and that actions helped me realize how company value us.

Fast pacing and you are really responsible for your campaigns. You will be able to wear different hats as well but I take that as an opportunity for me to grow my career more.
