Valuable job market experience but concerns over new leadership - werkgeversreview Anonieme werknemer bij Vertex

Very flexible, great team environment

Pay could always be better

Remote work Excellent people; my teammates were truly supportive and helpful at every moment while we worked together Strong focus on philanthropy

Vertex's strong culture that was there when I joined is quickly being deteriorated by new leadership within the company. Vertex used to be a different beast than most tech companies in a good way; now, they have bought into the AI hype at the expense of real talent like every other company in tech. There is no longer a focus on strong culture and now a laser-like focus on "getting ahead" on the AI train which the rest of us can see will bubble and collapse in the next few years. Leadership also makes ill-planned decisions on restructuring teams without properly training employees in their new roles, leaving individual contributors struggling and managers without a roadmap. This leads to inefficiencies across the board.
