What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Managers should be anonymously evaluated twice a year by every employee they manage. There should be anonymous surveys done by a third party company so that employees can express their concerns and situations can be resolved before it's too late.
Communicate and stop avoiding questions. Be clear about your intentions. Tell us why youre doing things this way and how it should benefit the company forward. Open paths for people to work in teams based in other regions.
The CEO is extremely temperamental and the leadership team lives in fear of him. Certain employees have targets on their backs seemingly because the CEO simply doesn't like them. Other employees get nonstop opportunities & promos because he "sees himself in them" (almost always young men).
Not much experience; slow pace

Middle managers need to stop bullying employees.

Company does not provide any benefits or growth opportunities
No bonus for sdr. No indvidual bonus for ae. Just team bonus which is 30% of base

I think I deserved a higher pay and better benefits.
Base salary is too low

What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Very strage sales pod and things are done very old fashioned
Review from Sales Dept
Need more folks to get more hands on
Review from Engineering Dept
Stop playing politics and improve the quality of the product. Middle managers don't encourage positive feedback to employees.
Review from Engineering Dept
We have the very worst codebase I have ever seen. Let's stop adding to the tech debt.
Review from Engineering Dept
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Hire new rock star executives
Review from Sales Dept
Eliminate middle managers, hire leaders who know what it is that their team does and have a career path for the ambitious.
Have leaders that know what we do on a day to day basis. Know what our customers need and want. Move team members into manager roles, because they are the only ones who know what our products really do.
Please keep an eye out on middle tier managers (and their managers who support them) who bully your employees.
HR isn't there to help employees. They are there to protect the company.

What would you improve about your company's interview process?
The interview process is extremely long even for the lowest paid jobs.
Stop overselling and be honest. Dont ghost ppl for months
Review from Sales Dept
The whole process takes too long
Review from Engineering Dept
Speed up the process and don't draw it out over months. Have people who actually know what we need interview the people. Quit hiring people from a certain company that already have a relationship with the leadership. No one wants a duplicate of that company....
What's going wrong and how can it be improved?
Veeva is run by woke liars.
Upper level management need to catch up new technologies
Review from Engineering Dept
Projects are bid so low you are over budget and out of time before you even start. The leadership team has no clue what all goes into a project. There is no work life balance for non-managers and no career path. Teams are expected to give everything to a project with no long term goals.
I'm being bullied and HR does nothing to help.
Review from Engineering Dept
Developers are micromanaged into apathy and poor performance. I can't wait to leave this company for somewhere I can breathe.
Review from Engineering Dept
What would you most like to see improved at your company?
Get the people who know about the industry and the competition involved in leadership. The ones who know what customers really want and need. The ones that choose to work here because they are driven to make these products better not driven to have fluffy title or padded pay check.
