Poor infrastructure and little or no team work - Solutions Architect ViON Employee Review

The 5 years I spent at ViON were the best of my professional career. The owners care about their employees and take great care of them. They empower you to take care of your customers.

None that I can think of.

No Sales Quotas. Free training but most you would never use there. Same for certifications payments. Average concise benefits. Free coffee in the cafe.

The annual bonus plan was significantly "misrepresented". Was told and have documented the bonus would be 20-30% of base pay. Well over 2.5 years guess what average 8% of base pay. Also, Vacation time will disappear with no warning if your not careful. Had the opportuntiy to work last Christmas and New years weeks for a RFP and could not take vacation. This resulted in two weeks of vacation time lost and they dont pay for that. Company has so many folks that been there for over 10/20 plus years that someone has to die or move away to get promoted. Managers/Vice Presidents seem to always go to trade shows every month in good locations while the pre sales guys get stuck in DC at FOSE, etc. VP of Engineering is agressive in his expections of selling and unrealistic in the execution and processes. Constant extra duty like uploading whitepapers to a file share run on third rate storage.
