Pros

Decent benefits package, thanks to the union.

Cons

Vox management was made fully aware of someone deleting their coworker’s pitches from shared documents and still decided to promote them. This is who you are considering aligning yourself with and it’s not the same organization I agreed to work with years ago. It’s really quite sad. It does not take a private investigator to figure out revision history in google docs and the fact that said employee would have been completely invalidated without our interaction is so deeply sad and embarrassing for a company that boasts the importance of fairness and collaborating well. This is not a company that practices what they preach.

Pros

Was a great place to be early on. There were some good times among colleagues, and the work felt rewarding at some points. Made some good friends during my time there.

Cons

Looking back, morale started to decline in 2018, with recurring layoffs and constant uncertainty becoming the norm. Employees are expected to maintain a high workload with little opportunity for advancement. Promotions and hiring often seem driven by politics and favoritism rather than performance. It's disappointing to see the direction of a company I once believed in.
