What do you like best about the leadership team?
Clarity in the vision where we need to lead as a business. Innovating with purpose and frequent communication has been on top of mind.
Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 6 days ago
As far as execs seem to be adapting w/ industry plus genuinely care about company. As far as middle management, I think maybe that gets a little lost in translation leading to some less then ideal dev team visions / roles / practices, management on my regular team is excellent however.
Review from Engineering Dept
The present growth drivers initiatives
Review from Engineering Dept
Helping us to learn more by providing training.
Review from Engineering Dept
Provides good training access on new software and encourages to explore new.
Review from Engineering Dept
What does the leadership team need to get better at?
Executive leadership is OPAQUE. Staff questions are met with equivocation and a lack of clear answers. Also, PAY YOUR STAFF A FAIR WAGE.

Understanding employee needs, be clear about why they make certain decisions.

We are constantly working 50 - 60 hour weeks, and we were threatened to have to work weekends. This is way too much.

What is the best part about your compensation package?
Focus on performance based on bonus.
Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 6 days ago
Takehome as per offer letter coming
Review from Engineering Dept
I don't want to disclose
Review from Engineering Dept
Bonus plan is fairly competitive in the marketplace, although formula for it is not transparent nor clear throughout the year. Not knowing the exact formula gives perception (and opportunity) to make the bonus % whatever execs want.
Review from Engineering Dept
The salary is received on time.
Review from Engineering Dept
Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?
being paid 70% market value while expecting 100% effort. Wanting best of class performance while offering bottom of the barrel compensation. Actually rewarding and incentiving hard work and performance
Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 12 days ago
I have been consistently paid below average salary for my career / role since I started working at Vertafore
Review from Engineering Dept
As a MNC company CTC should match with role.
Review from Engineering Dept
I think at every 5 years or so, salary normalization should happen as per the fair average market value for that role. That would help us to be competitive with the industry/market and retain very best top talent as the years progress.
Review from Engineering Dept
Lesser hike and package than market price and benifits.
Review from Engineering Dept

Review from Engineering Dept
What do your coworkers need to improve and how could you work together better?
Too many don't know what theyre doing and are mote concerned with covering their own skin than actually trying to learn and figure things out.

All politics they are in system from more than 10yes
Review from Engineering Dept
Respect and be ready to step in and support
Review from Engineering Dept
Communication should be increased between teams
Review from Engineering Dept
Vertafore tends to hire under qualified people, and generally hires the first(and usually only) person to accept the job. Working with some of my co workers is a nightmare.
Review from Engineering Dept
What is most positive about the culture and environment at your company?
Willingness to listen and change.
Review from Engineering Dept · Posted 6 days ago
I think people genuinely feel pride in coming together to try to put out a good product.
Review from Engineering Dept
The most positive aspect of our company culture is the collaborative and supportive work environment. Team members are approachable, willing to share knowledge, and always ready to help each other achieve common goals. This creates strong sense of teamwork and mutual respect across the organization
Review from Engineering Dept
Nothing good all ok ok
Review from Engineering Dept
Flexibility, continuous learning, curiosity is encouraged.
Review from Engineering Dept
What needs to change to make the company culture better?
Not really sure. It just seems hard to actually talk to people
Review from Engineering Dept
Not applicable for the entire organisation, but 'People Management is an Art' . First timers into People management is tough for the team especially when manager feels superiority over the team coz of their tech background., A skip level meeting with the director would be very helpful in such cases.
Review from Engineering Dept
Work culture, Technologies, Learnings, Work life balance
Review from Engineering Dept
Organization set up to allow for clear communication and workflows. A move away from everyone as a resource and the attempt to squeeze every penny out of people, process, and activity. And when something is done (benifits/perks) they are done well not to a minimum that meets a marketing line.
Review from Engineering Dept
Pay people enough to care
Review from Engineering Dept
What did you like most about the interview process?
Who likes the interview process? This is a strange question. It wasn't particularly odious.
Review from Engineering Dept
It wasn't a terribly long process like some other companies - an online "test", a call or two, and one in-person interview (pre-covid). Things may have changed since then though.
Review from Engineering Dept
getting to know the people
Review from Engineering Dept
Once the personal interviews it was a great process full of good questions and candor.

Sped up, my interview process took 2 months

Managment should change in india
Review from Engineering Dept
Executive team doesn't listen to staff feedback. They ask for it, as an effort to appear as though they want to incorporate employees' suggestions into company processes and policies, but they effectively ignore or circumlocute around it.
Review from Engineering Dept
The technology being used in the applications are too old and brittle because no time had been spent on tech debt. The processes are really inefficient as well. Basically the phrase "sunk-cost fallacy" comes to mind in terms of technology and processes
Review from Engineering Dept
POs and higher-ups are pushing for unrealistic timelines which causes developers to work extreme hours. We don't have time to see our families.
Review from Engineering Dept
What do you like best about your company?
The paycheck, and even that is not great
Review from Engineering Dept
What would you most like to see improved at your company?
Pay market rates - and stop claiming you already do.
Review from Engineering Dept
Value your employees and their specific knowledge in insurance.
