More about Vista Entertainment Solutions

VISTA ENTERTAINMENT SOLUTIONS – CASE STUDY 1

Experience life at Vista through the lens of Theo and Candice – University of Auckland Engineering graduates and now full-time employees at Vista!

Theo is a Software Developer who was elected to be the Scrum Master for his team just six months after starting at Vista!

One of the first projects that Theo worked on was enhancing the UI for Vista’s Point of Sale product. This involved a lot of re-working and communication with multiple stakeholders. Theo was involved throughout the process and found the end result even more satisfying after receiving positive feedback from the customer.

Candice is a Services Consultant. Her multilingual skills are particularly helpful when interacting directly with our global customers.

Working at Vista is all about finding innovative ways of solving problems and as a Services consultant, you’re always looking for new ways to ensure the best customer experience. Candice finds it “rewarding to have a positive influence on someone’s business.”

HERE’S WHAT THEO AND CANDICE LOVE ABOUT THEIR ROLES

Theo: “The people. Simply put, the people I work with are great to be around. We have good banter and help each other…. I think the environment starts from our Group CEO [Murray Holdaway] who has built Vista from the ground up. It’s a great culture to be in.”

Candice: “I enjoy the team environment at Vista, we are all working towards the same goal. Everyone is friendly and ready to help each other, no matter how busy they are.”

THINKING ABOUT A FUTURE IN SOFTWARE

Theo: “If you enjoy it, do it. I didn’t do any software before I started Uni but when I took the introductory course, it just clicked and I loved it. Doing something you enjoy gives you more motivation to learn.”

Candice: “Software engineering is the future. It’s in everything that surrounds us. There are so many opportunities for a software engineer. It’s a valuable degree that’s definitely work all the effort put into it.”

There are heaps of learning opportunities at Vista. All staff attend plenty of training sessions in their first few months that arm them with the tools they need to get them going. From then on there are knowledge sharing sessions that occur throughout the year. We also hold the Innovation Cup competition to encourage company-wide collaboration on creative ideas and product and process solutions.
