Volusion Employee Reviews for Systems Engineer

"A very negative experience. Politics, politics, politics. Goodbye personal life."

What do you like about working at Volusion?

"Very little. Volusion likes to tout it's place as best place to work in 2010, but it hasn't earned that title since, for good reason"

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Run, don't walk, to the nearest exit. Be prepared for a potentially grueling multi-hour interview process if you decide to go up for a gig here."

What don't you like about working at Volusion?

"The pay for every area of the company is well below market rate. Promotions are very hard to come by, and if you manage to snag one, pay increases (even those for simply merit increase) are an insult.Management is absolutely incoherent. Decisions are made without due diligence. The development team pushes buggy code on a regular basis, IT is a wreck, customer service is a revolving door. A few departments have their act together, but overall you can expect to be thrown under the bus by whomever benefits from doing so.Work/life balance is nonexistent. Volusion expects 110% from their employees at all time, even requires non-salaried employees to be on call and respond to and address emails at all hours and on weekends.Honestly - avoid this place. You can find much, much better."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Pay your employees what they are worth, and get rid of those in management who have amassed enough power to push their views and projects that negatively affect not just the employees, but your business as a whole."
