Vantaggi

There are free drinks and snacks in the office, most managers are flexible when it comes to work hours and work from home time, Cox benefits are pretty solid. The idea for their software is great.

Svantaggi

If you're looking for a place where if you work hard you will be noticed, this is not it. HIGHLY political, seriously the worst nepotism I have ever encountered, and egos from very outspoken and ignorant people make for a miserable work environment. When issues are brought up to management, they are ignored or the victim is the one who ends up punished. Videa has lost a lot of it's best people to a lack of experience from the leadership team. No one in charge has any software experience and doesn't understand what it takes to build something as bit as the Videa platform. This causes constant fires that need to be put out and an incredible amount of scope creep. Product Owners have little to no experience with being PO's and are more concerned about themselves and how they look than the actual product which makes it incredibly difficult for engineering to execute in a realistic time frame.

Vantaggi

This company holds the best of both world's - start-up culture/freedom to innovate and serious backing $$$ by a big company - in the palm of its hands. There are talented people in place to make the platform succeed. Management and even Cox leadership are more than open to hearing suggestions and they genuinely want to empower employees to drive Videa to succeed, which it will. There is a fairly flexible work schedule, generally nice people from a cross-section of industries - tv, advertising and tech - all (mostly) working together to deliver a programmatic solution and grab a large slice of what promises to be a huge market. Benefits are excellent; laid back atmosphere; good perks (WFH policy depending on department; monthly lunches; stocked snack room, with keg, candy jars, volunteer opptys etc.). Ongoing opportunities to learn if you want to.

Svantaggi

Can be somewhat siloed, but this is changing for the better. There are some small growing pains happening with the platform that are typical for software development. But for the employees who do not come from a software background, this can be frustrating.

Thank you for your post! We're happy that you're happy! Our flexible work schedule, along with the benefits that Cox brings, is certainly a plus. And we hear you when you say sometimes silos exist. We strive for consistent communication across the company and know we're not completely there yet, but very glad that you're experiencing positive change recently. Thanks again for the feedback!
