Pros
I have been working here for almost a year now. I joined the company immediately after graduating from the University of the Philippines, so I was worried that there would be a gap between what I studied in academia and its application in creating real tech products. While there was of course a difference between theory and practice, Voyager gave me a venue to cultivate my skills by providing trainings on a weekly basis. The company also provided me opportunities to attend different conferences important to those who want to build a career in quality engineering, such as softcon and webinars. Perhaps what is most refreshing is that - even as a fresh graduate - I am given regular opportunities to share my knowledge to my teammates, even those much older than I am, and my opinions and ideas are always taken seriously. In that way, Voyager is organizationally flat and operates as a meritocracy. Here we are free to learn and use different tools and technologies based on the needs and challenges of the project we’re handling: in other words, there is no particular dogma that we have to adhere to - we just do what works. This kind of thinking prospers at Voyager because of the culture, which is something I am truly proud of for all the reasons I mentioned above.
Cons
Since Voyager is growing rapidly, reserving rooms where meetings can be held has been an issue. However, management will relocate us to a much larger office later this year or early next year.
