Avantages

Some hard working and nice people that you may work with. Some of the benefits are slightly better than competitors.

Inconvénients

A lot of the people that were good to work with have left or been pushed out and there is zero culture or team spirit left and while some of the benefits are decent, they are outweighed by the poor salary and bonuses that actually get paid. The business has been steadily shrinking for the last 2 years with multiple rounds of redundancies managed in questionable ways, which has also curiously reduced diversity significantly. Trying to fix a sinking ship by partnering with as many software firms as possible in order to replicate happenstance success found with other vendors that was not based in a talent or a unique market offering, just having had one or two big clients that kept the wheels turning until the mask slipped and/or being mates with some of the software vendors and responding to requests at the drop of a hat. This might work in some cases but is very hard to replicate and does not present a unique market position that has longevity. A lot of staff are waiting for a pay-day from a sale of the business that will be hard to get any value from as there is almost zero visibility of pipeline beyond 3 months and there is almost no self-sufficient pipeline generation that you need to make a business like this attractive to buy. The new "leaders" are basically just mirror images of the owners and exhibit all of their toxic traits coupled with being extremely arrogant and egotistical, taking credit for other peoples work and lack any level of self-reflection to realise that they are not as impressive as they think they are, are generally not well liked and are pushing good people out of the organisation. The leaders have little industry subject matter expertise, so there are very few skills to learn unless you care about pigeonholing your career into some niche softwares. And with all of that, expectations on individuals are so high that they are impossible to achieve, and there isn't enough cash flow for people to get paid even half decent bonuses because the owners take all the money for their next big house or car. I would regularly hear a response to someone complaining of having too much work and too high expectations of them that "they're not the sort of consultants that will thrive here" - implying that the only people who thrive are people that put everything into the job with no expectation of progress or bonus which is wild to me. They say you should be earning or learning, of which you will achieve neither here.

Avantages

This is a great place for people who want to work with cutting edge technology and financial transformation. Colleagues are friendly and helpful, and management has a genuine interest in every employee's development. If you want exposure to other businesses, to challenge yourself to grow and learn, and to work with incredibly intelligent people to foster your growth, VantagePoint is a great environment for that.

Inconvénients

This is a consultancy firm where you may work with challenging or demanding clients. This can sometimes lead to tight deadlines. But that is sometimes the nature of customer service regardless of where you work. It's not really a con, it just comes with the territory.

Avantages

Working at VantagePoint has provided a truly collaborative experience within a global setting, fostering a sense of unity akin to a tight-knit family. Despite the company's expansive reach, the familial culture remains intact, creating an environment where every team member feels valued. VantagePoint offers diverse opportunities for professional growth, allowing individuals to align their roles with their specific interests, be it in management, technical expertise, training, or project management. The competitive compensation package reflects the company's commitment to recognizing and rewarding talent. Regular travel to various locations, including other countries, for meetups enhances the collective spirit and exposes employees to a variety of perspectives. The management's proactive approach to encouraging employees to step out of their comfort zones, although initially intimidating, proves instrumental in fostering personal development. Notably, upper management remains accessible at all times, reinforcing the company's dedication to open communication. Partnerships with cutting-edge technologies like Workiva, Pigment, Tagetik, and NetSuite adds additional opportunities. Furthermore, VantagePoint's commitment to employee development is evident through its investment in training opportunities, solidifying its reputation as an employer dedicated to nurturing talent.

Inconvénients

VantagePoint has its challenges, including high insurance costs and occasional last-minute schedule changes to meet immediate needs. Another aspect to address is the desire for more annual leave days. While the company has its strengths, these areas present opportunities for improvement in the overall employee experience.
