Pros

This place is not horrible, but not great either. They don't work you to death by expecting long hours every week. The pay is good and the benefits are good.

Cons

Some of the engineering managers have been here for years and had no clue what other engineering teams did. They did not know how to ask the security team to review something. They did not know how to file a bug report. One manager did not even know what a bug was. For a company that is all about enabling planning for other businesses, this one does not do a good job at planning. Projects are started with lots of fanfare and then work on the projects fizzles after a few months. It's better to complete a project than to start one. The company did a surprise re-org back in February. It was a big shakeup for what purpose I don't know. People ended up on teams where they did not fit in because of a skills mismatch. The re-org costed the company a lot of wasted effort.

Pros

Perks , culture ,colleagues, benefits

Cons

No career development opportunities or recognition. Full of politics and high management without any skill or qualifications but only good personal relationships and public relations.

Pros

There's no pros to be said here.

Cons

HR spends more time adding fake reviews than they do fixing the culture at Anaplan. Everyone is afraid to speak up and when they do, they will face "political consequences". The talent is decent but the "technical" leaders are a joke. You will be amused that most of them can't code a print "hello world" statement. The organization is filled with decent talent who can't stop dreaming about quitting their jobs for better opportunities as well as upper-management who hide their mistakes by blaming others. Don't ever try too to work too hard here; you will never be recognized even if you are the real deal. This is the harshest review I have ever written but it has to be said before another job seeker destroys their career here. I am doing them a favor. If you had any type of respect for yourself, you wouldn't put yourself in this position.
