Pros

The work could be very interesting and exciting, people are talented and hardworking, and Versett treated employees well.

Cons

Executive team made too many shifts without fully understanding the ongoing processes. Hybrid (office/remote) culture was becoming deprioritized. Leadership would talk the talk about goals, milestones, and improvements but would never succeed. Everything was driven by numbers/profit so as an individual, I felt vulnerable at all times.

Pros

I appreciated the flexibility and autonomy in my work. I met some talented colleagues, who like me were exploited for our skills and experiences.

Cons

With a lot of changes in 2022, I experienced the worst burnout I had ever experienced during my time at one of the recently acquired companies, which led to a stress leave and my decision to quit to protect my health and well-being. The company states that they value people-first, but really it rewards certain people and discriminates against others, especially BIPOC employees by underpaying and overworking them. During my time, I experienced gaslighting and witnessed bullying of other colleagues, which was never resolved during my time there. When some colleagues quit earlier in the year, instead of reviewing the recently won contracts and hiring more staff, the same workload was applied to fewer employees, which resulted in multiple burnouts and an overwhelming amount of stress applied to across multiple teams. There seems to be an inability to say no to clients or contracts until it is too late, and profit is prioritized over employee health. After my departure, I do not believe any positive changes have been made to address these critical systemic issues.

Thanks so much for taking the time to leave a review. I’m sorry your experience of Versett didn’t live up to the expectations you had of us, or indeed the high bar we have set for ourselves. Our commitment to building a diverse team is sincere —though imperfect — and we’re continually learning and pushing ourselves to do better. We have initiated a new DEI report, the results of which will be made public, just as we did in 2019, 2020 and 2021. In addition, all team engagement data can be reviewed against demographics to better understand the specific experiences of diverse groups of people.
