Pros

They have snacks including drinks and fruit.

Cons

Voze is a great company to work for if your goal is to work for a living. I was once told, "If you're not willing to work for free, Voze is not the place for you." There's a lot of truth to that statement. The workload is constantly overwhelming, with months-long "death marches" of work that drain both your personal time and mental health. Expect to be put through grueling periods of stress with little to no recognition or compensation for the long hours. The management is completely out of touch with reality, showing little to no concern for the well-being of their employees. When things go wrong, they have a bad habit of pointing fingers at the development team, never taking any responsibility for their own decisions or lack of leadership. It’s a pattern of blame-shifting that creates an environment where the development team is left to pick up the pieces and carry the weight. To add to the toxic culture, favoritism is rampant. Certain employees get away with doing the bare minimum, while others are expected to constantly sacrifice their personal time to make up for the slack. It creates an incredibly frustrating atmosphere where you feel like no matter how hard you work, it never seems to matter. The pay is another huge downside. For all the long hours and stress, you're not compensated nearly enough for the work you’re doing. The salary doesn’t reflect the amount of work or responsibility expected of you, and raises are few and far between. To make matters worse, there’s an overall lack of transparency around pay, which only contributes to feelings of resentment among staff. On top of all this, in company meetings, there have been instances where customers are openly mocked. It’s clear that customer satisfaction is not a priority here, and the lack of professionalism only adds to the toxic culture. If you want to work in an environment where you're undervalued, overworked, and underpaid, Voze might be the place for you. But if you care about your mental health, work-life balance, or personal growth, I’d strongly recommend looking elsewhere.

Pros

Voze has opened my eyes to how things should be. The customer service, employee happiness, teamwork, and the drive to be the best, is the strongest I have ever experienced. I can genuinely say I love working with and talking to everyone who works here, and have yet to have a day that I didn't have a smile on my face the whole time. Work life balance is a huge focus, as is personal and professional success. We aren't just arming Voze to be successful, we are also arming ourselves and our customers to be successful. Management understands that if our customers and ourselves are successful, they/the company will be successful too. Everything is focused on what is right, growth, and success in all aspects.

Cons

I genuinely cannot think of any cons. In the office there is always food stocked, there are little breakout areas for some time to disconnect if needed, and everyone is so friendly and wanting the best for all. Benefits are great, management encourages personal growth, and there is no toxicity or tension.
