Tech Debt & Turnover - Recensione dipendente - Dipendente anonimo presso VGS

- In the time I was there, the company pivoted through 3 different product offerrings, 2 different rebrandings, 3 CEO's, and 2 entire C Suites, and one 50%+ layoff. - Turnover, understaffing, overworking are rampant across the org. From the sales team, to the engineering team. I've witnessed software engineers work 80+ hours a week to build a feature that did not exist anymore, which previously existed, but was deleted, but which the company was now building again, with a new name. This is not the fault of engineers, but poor product management and leadership direction. - The company has serious tech debt, and technical decisions are frequently made, half done, undone, redone, and then deleted. Don't expect up to date documentation, or any sort of clear instructions. What does exist is 3 versions out of date, and if a new one was made, it's hidden under some irrelevant title in a document only 2 people know how to find. - I have never in my life seen so many business critical outages occur so frequently and so often. At one point, there was 2-3 critical outages per week. This has been improved with new engineering management, but the tech debt that caused it is still there. - The company is a patchwork of glue and nuts and bolts in an attempt to make some sort of fintech company, with no idea or direction of what it's actually trying to do other than be a Fintech company. - The experience of working at VGS is like being employed by a headless, frantic squirrel searching for nuts late into winter. I would not recommend.
