Pros

Great health benefits. Can sometimes append your travel. Interesting co-workers, sometimes very intelligent. Products are cool.

Cons

Specific to VizRT in US: President is micromanaging shark with microagressions and anger management issues. VPs and middle management are spineless yes men in their president's shadow. Truly a petty dictatorship. You pay for your travel expenses, flights, hotels, they reimburse quarterly, but do not have guidelines and I've seen them argue and not reimburse employees for things that should be standard. No work/life balance, they do not respect your time. Expect to work long hours for typically 35% less pay than competitors in same sector. No pay raises EVER, expect only a cost of living raise as it's law in the state, and you'll be lucky if they allow you to take your complete vacation time. Extremely low ceiling, no movement.

We apologize for any experience you had with Vizrt in 2016 that was less than optimal. Since your time here many things have changed and we are continuously looking for new ways to improve the employee experience. We've outlined several new processes that include travel and expense, rolling over vacation days. etc. and we are in the process of rolling out a communications/listening program that helps employees address any issue they feel is having a negative impact on their work experience. Our people are very important to us and our goal is always to have a mutually beneficial relationship. Thank you for your time in providing a Glassdoor comment.

Pros

Cool products, smart engineers. Interesting individuals

Cons

Management id consolidating power, getting rid of old guard. Promoting sticklers. Employees are faceless individuals that arent treated right. Mid level management are a bunch of yes men. Nepotism is rife. Norwegians get first pick of everything.

Pros

Nice travel, if you like sitting in datacenters and working fourteen to sixteen or more hours daily in exotic locations. You make your own travel arrangements (and pay for it too, they reimburse) so you can schedule the weekend while you're at that exotic locale. Health and PTO benefits are nice.

Cons

Management is horrid. I've see the US President stare for fifteen minutes across the Manhattan office at his employees with the evil eye. Work/ Life balance is not respected by the company whatsoever. Training is minimal if any at all. Expectations are unrealistic with training, you will be expected to know everything without training. Escalation path is non - existent, after 11AM EST you will be left holding the ball while the customer screams.
