You can do better! There are plenty of tech companies out there. - Mitarbeiter (anonym) bei VALD: Mitarbeiterbewertung

We appreciate you taking the time to review VALD on Glassdoor. Just as we build and refine our products based on the latest research, receiving feedback is always welcome and helps us refine our team member experience. We agree with your comments around being a part of an exciting growth period for VALD. VALD is a fast growing company with new and exciting things always taking place. We do expect a lot from our team members and we provide opportunities for really rewarding work, and the perks are there to help. We have a global client base and alongside the excitement of that is sometimes the need for not having a 9-5 work day. To be successful as we scale, we need to work hard and be enthusiastic by what we are creating and accomplishing. Sometimes there are areas of work that require an escalation of effort that, yes, may extend your working day compared to what you would be required to work in a large corporate organisation. However with effort comes reward, and I am proud of how VALD has fun, relaxes and unwinds as a company following those high demand periods. This helps us handle our work better and we celebrate our achievements by having both formal and informal celebrations as a team. To address your comments around high turnover, I would be interested to know what your definition of high is. Yes, we have turnover, just like any company and in particular dynamic scale ups. VALD isn’t for everyone, and if you are uncomfortable with what we stand for or how we work, you are unlikely to thrive long term. Sometimes the misalignment is identified early in someone’s employment at VALD, and that’s ok. We strive to find a relationship where both the team member and VALD thrive by having a common goal. I’m disappointed to hear your comment around alleged objectification and mocking treatment. I take these comments very seriously and if you would like to share more about your experience please contact me by emailing laurie@vald.com (or our Company Secretary/General Counsel Tim Wilkins (t.wilkins@vald.com)) so that we can set up a time to discuss this more, in a confidential manner.
