Pluspunten

I've been working for VR for the last year. Start time is 7 and we almost never finish before 4. I'll either clean lettuce and or wash items. The people I work with are pretty amazing actually. I make 35K and get health benefits. It doesn't sound amazing but it is the most I've ever been paid farming.

Minpunten

Management is pretty disconnected from the daily operations. They rely heavily on spreadsheets and statistical data instead of just talking to workers. That part is pretty ironic considering that one of their core values is employees empowerment. It production work and there is an emphasis on speed. That isn't horrible if it weren't for the fact that there are constantly adding new tasks that always slow down production.

We work hard everyday, and our team members are the best. Our company is going through some changes right now, but our culture of together continues. We want each person at our company to feel valued and appreciated. If you have some thoughts about how we can improve, we'd love to hear more.

Pluspunten

Your coworkers are the best you’ll meet. I loved all the people in my suite. You can move up if you want to pretty fast sometimes.

Minpunten

The company loves to say how much they care about their employees, they’ll say it so much they’ll make you believe it. But, when it comes to actually showing it they won’t and then they’ll say it’s for our benefit and not the companies benefit, which let me tell you is a lie. They expect more out of you than anyone could give they basically want you to say screw your family, screw your future and everything you believe in. They only look at you as a number and not a human being. Just a quick example, I wanted to go back to school I found a school with a reasonable schedule but vertical roots refused to make any accommodations and seeing that I’d only be able to work 10 hour shifts for them i would have to quit before they gave me the hours and that’s what I was actually told. I clock in early every morning to try to get a jumpstart on the day and if I ever have to get off early which is rarely but with working Monday thru Friday and working such long hours I needed the bank sometimes or the dmv or other places I otherwise can’t go to over the weekend they will treat you like utter crap and make you feel so bad for wanting and needing to do something for yourself and your life. Also no overtime, again they say no over time is for the employees benefit.
