Pros

You feel that you fit everywhere. Very good company culture and helpful and nice team mates. A lot of opportunities and learning. Recognize your effort. Very good life - work balance.

Cons

I found that some times there is a bit of lack of communication between some teams or management but I see each day is getting better and everyone (as far as I saw) is keen and willing to change.

Thanks for the support! We’re so happy to hear you’ve had this experience with us. Company culture is vital to our success. We want our employees to know the role they have in our mission and feel empowered and supported to move their career and innovation in the right direction. Trust, freedom and opportunity isn’t just a core value we toss around. We all feel connected to it. Our employees have the autonomy to find a work-life balance that works for them and their team. They also have endless opportunities to learn, connect with their colleagues and our communities, and help us make internal changes reflective of the needs of our employees. We can’t wait to see what you’ll accomplish here at Viasat.

Pros

Good work-life balance with flexible scheduling

Cons

Over the past several years, the company has lacked a clear long-term strategy, resulting in frequent reorganizations, shifting priorities, and multiple rounds of layoffs. Decision-making often feels reactive rather than strategic, creating uncertainty and making it difficult to execute long-term plans. Internal processes can also be overly complex, slowing down work and reducing efficiency.
