Nice work life balance

Great place to work and make friends.Taking away remote work has not worked well. Company's culture can improve to make people feel safe and welcomed.

Avoid this place at all costs

Account Executive (Former Employee) - Saskatchewan - 21 November 2023

If you work here, your mental health will deteriorate. Management is an absolute joke with no experience scaling a company this size. The executives are liars and narcissists with zero accountability.

Pros

None

Cons

Everything. Stay away

Not a company worth Joining

Manager (Former Employee) - Remote - 20 October 2023

Would not reccomened joining the company. They lack accountability, structure and are unable to keep or get top talent. They are inpatient and are unable to properly execute on their vision due to to many people being miss-aligned and a CEO that micromanages the entire business.

Cons

Poor pay, average benefits, bad leadership, CEO is incompetent

We're genuinely disappointed to hear that your time at Vendasta didn't meet your expectations.While we thrive in a fast-paced environment, we never want anyone to feel that their mental health is being affected by working here. The well-being of all Vendastians means a lot to us. We actively promote a healthy work-life balance. In fact, we've crafted an entire mental health toolkit available to Vendastians, providing valuable resources to support their mental well-being. We also have a wellness and mental health committee that organizes educational training events, and fun activities to ensure everyone’s well-being is being taken care of. Scaling a company is no easy task, but at Vendasta, we're lucky to have leaders with experience from some of the world's largest companies guiding us. Their insights are crucial as we navigate the ups and downs of growing our business.The insights and feedback from Vendastians and former employees are also vitally important to us and are something we take to heart as we grow and improve our culture.
