Pros

Free food sometimes if you work late, an opportunity to learn cutting-edge Scala, a candy land for those who enjoy nothing other than work 24/7, regular lunch & learns and demos, MSP coverage and full medical.

Cons

I was hired under the impression that I would be working with very smart, knowledgeable, and efficient people. Instead I found a culture that extolled overwork instead of balance and efficiency. There are countless studies proving how a well-rested balanced employee can run circles around an exhausted and overworked employee. I'm afraid this is just another churn-and-burn shop. TDD is seen as a waste of time especially for large complex projects with critical deliverables. Consequently at this company I saw some of the worst cowboy code I have ever seen in my 25 years of writing code. The most important thing I learned from Visier was how much I value work/life balance and insist on working with others who value the same.

Pros

A paycheck until you find something better.

Cons

The embedded sales division is a revolving door sold to execs as “special” but run on unstable, outdated, and neurotic processes that constantly fail. Leadership talks big but delivers results far below industry standards. Millions were wasted hiring new reps and marketing support — most were let go or quit within a year. Toxic leadership and a boys’ club culture make it worse.
