Virbela Compensation Employee Reviews

What is the best part about your compensation package?

The cost-of-living raise earlier this year was very helpful, and I take advantage of a lot of our secondary benefits (FSA, CostCo discount, etc.).

Review from IT Dept

Full remote, competitive pay being remote.

Review from Engineering Dept

Unlimited vacation & employer mostly paid health insurance.

The dental and vision insurance

Review from Customer Support Dept

The "unlimited time off" although i barely take any time, knowing that i can when needed to go to a doctor or attend family issues takes a big relief out

Review from Operations Dept

For the moment is difficult to say. I am outside the US and life is getting hard here. Everything expensive.

Review from Customer Support Dept

This is the first job where my compensation matches my skill set and I feel like this company sees my value and cares about my salary.

Review from Operations Dept

Happy they offer medical, dental and vision insurance. Love the Calm app as well.

Review from Customer Support Dept

Fair sales comp plans and paid time off.

Review from Sales Dept

Work from anywhere and time off when needed to re-charge.

Review from Sales Dept

Free Medical and Calm App

Competitive pay and good insurance.

Review from Engineering Dept

401k match - really like that it happens every paycheck

Review from Product Dept

100% remote work - it is the product, but also the best benefit

Review from Engineering Dept

I honestly don't know what this is!

Review from Customer Success Dept

The salary, slightly above average, everything else is at or below average.

Review from Engineering Dept

insurance and 401k and many things

Review from Customer Success Dept

I am thankful for all of it :)

Review from Customer Success Dept

I am part time so as of right now I don't participate

Review from Customer Support Dept

Full work from home. Proper support for working at home.

Review from Engineering Dept

Why do you feel undervalued and what would make you feel better about your compensation?

Need to be clear what they benefits are

Review from Sales Dept

more pay to stay ahead of inflation and a 4day week

Review from Design Dept

It's much lower than what the industry is paying.

Review from Customer Success Dept

Compared to other companies underpaid.

Review from Sales Dept

adjustments and evaluations are not made at a regular cadence

Review from Marketing Dept

I sometimes feel that more attention has been put towards hiring new employees instead of bringing up existing employees.

Review from Product Dept

My compensation is not within the average range for my role or experience. When I asked about it, I was told that people that were hired in the first few months of 2020 were paid too high so they had to bring down salaries going forward. So because others were overpaid, now some are underpaid.

Review from IT Dept

no compensation when on call

Review from IT Dept

I actually came into the company being slightly undervalued for my position and title in the industry, so I'm hoping Virbela will take corrective action relatively quickly.

Review from Engineering Dept

more recognition, verbally and monetary

Being re-evaluated after 30, 60 or even 90 days would probably go a long way. Since coming on board, I feel undervalued now BUT I have a lot of grit left to stay and continue to be the best team member and work to a better future with Virbela.

If it was just a little bit higher.

Review from Customer Support Dept

Yes. Recognition, Active listening, Positive feedback

Review from Customer Support Dept

the unique stresses that are part of being with a startup stem from not having a reliable base to build upon. There are constantly times where the structure behind my position is not present and I have to compensate for that which causes a lot more work and is beyond what should be asked of me.

Review from Customer Success Dept

I am very happy to be compensate as I am , for my work.. so I don't feel undervalued.. But I do find myself wishing for more money and wondering about other companies and if I might get something higher for similar work..

Review from Design Dept

Salary is lower than industry standards. Especially for the nature of work and long hours.

Review from Customer Success Dept

We have account managers and customer success advisors on our team. We are not split up and do not have a defined line on who does what and we all have very similar jobs and job descriptions. My pay does not reflect what others are making and I work just as hard and long as they do.

Review from Customer Support Dept

When I started there was mention of a bonus program, but upon execution there it has been no where in site. We work on OKR which are stretch goals, but they are not tied to compensation in any way.

Review from Engineering Dept

Benefits package is ok, not amazing. Pay is not up to what some competing companies offer. Culture is probably better at Virbela, so it is a trade-off.

Review from Design Dept

I believe others in my role are being paid much more. And just from former companies that I've been with (that are still in existence) their benefits/perks were much better
