Pros

Absolutely nothing, and that comes honestly.

Cons

If you're a talented worker seeking a stable and rewarding career, it's essential to think twice before considering Velocity Global as your employer. This company is plagued by a series of concerning issues that make it a less-than-ideal choice for ambitious professionals. Unusual Leadership Team: Velocity Global's leadership team is far from the standard you'd expect in a well-established company. Their management approach appears haphazard and disorganized, which can make it incredibly challenging for employees to work effectively. Decisions seem to be made on a whim, leading to instability and uncertainty within the organization. Constantly Changing Initiatives: One of the most frustrating aspects of working at Velocity Global is the relentless and abrupt shifts in company initiatives. It's nearly impossible to develop a sense of direction or purpose when the goals and strategies are constantly evolving. This lack of consistency can hinder your professional growth and job satisfaction. Ongoing Layoffs: The ever-present threat of layoffs at Velocity Global is a significant deterrent for those seeking job security. The company has a history of periodic layoffs, which creates an environment of fear and insecurity among employees. The uncertainty surrounding job stability can be a considerable source of stress and anxiety. In conclusion, if you're a dedicated worker looking for a company with a stable leadership team, clear objectives, and job security, Velocity Global is not the right choice. The unusual management approach, constant shifts in initiatives, and ongoing layoffs make this company a risky place for your career. It's advisable to explore other opportunities where you can thrive and grow without these concerns.

Pros

- Salaries aren't awful - Coworkers are great - Unlimited PTO (unless that changes) - Flexible hours

Cons

- CEO only cares about his money anymore - Internal "reports" are so biased it's unreal - C levels don't bother investigating why something isn't working, just over-the-top panicky reactions to any type of wrench in the machine. Their "solutions" only create more issues. - Will restructure an entire department based on inaccurate data that did not get properly evaluated - Will lay off the majority of a department after 2 weeks of implementing a new structure, without waiting to see if it will work and with no explanation whatsoever - High performance (and loyalty) won't save you - Asks for employee input and then ignores all of it and does what they want anyway - Obvious favoritism sprinkled throughout; Kiss enough peach and you will be rewarded, even if your personality is lacking and you aren't that good at your job

Thank you for taking the time to give us feedback. Yes, there has been a great deal of change at Velocity Global - Change in how we operate, change in product focus, change from small organization to an ever growing one. Changes can be difficult, sometimes they can seem messy, but we are dedicated to stay focused on our people, our mission and our vision, the outcome can be amazing.

Pros

Work remote, nice team members in all departments (just not the folks in the disconnected multiple levels of middle management and executive leadership).

Cons

Too many to list, but the biggest one was being required to make commitments to clients that you knew your other departments could not keep. Eventually the Client Account Managers and Client Solutions Managers become punching bags for clients to unload on since the rest of the organization is so incompetent across the board. I heard multiple times from clients that my rapport and reputation built over many years dropped significantly when my previous company was acquired by Velocity Global. Countless errors in service by regional country teams, countless invoicing errors, and the CSMs/CAMs have no control over the business processes that they are expected to take accountability for. True, that happens in every organization and is part of the job, but this is infinitely worse here than any other organization I've been apart of. Also, you'll notice that all of the negative reviews for the company pour in consistently while most of the 5 star reviews all seem to arrive in clusters. I wonder why that could be? I'm sure it isn't to boost up their 1 star average up a couple points.
