Avantages
Majority of co-workers are nice. Modern office.
Inconvénients
Waste of state taxpayer dollars. Lack of proper RFP processes driven by top management. Unjustified and wasteful multi-day tours for a large group of VEDP employees around various regions that provide no benefit to Virginia businesses. Analysis paralysis by CEO. McKenzie charts and data are interesting, but leadership is lacking. Communication is not fully transparent. Focus is on state rankings over substantive changes that will benefit Virginians. No value is provided over other existing regional/local groups, Go Virginia, or the Chamber. Employment bias towards millennials. Failing to listen to those with experience in the business world versus life-time government employees and their latch-key contractors is disturbing.
