Pros

I have been blown away with this leadership team, esp Frank. The way they manage covid has been top notch. They communicate all the time across the company and with my team. They care about us. They gave us a money to get set up at home. They check in with us about our mental health. They have weekly meetings with special guests--customers, medical experts, and these meetings are better than anything I read in the news. We are giving our platform away for free to help the front lines. We set up a hackathon for apps for covid. This company came together to help. I couldn't be prouder. There is no better place to work than here during this crazy time. I see my friends and family are worried about their workplaces, I am not worried because the communications at Anaplan has been regular, transparent and direct. No BS. It's refreshing.

Cons

Our customers need us more than ever. Planning, modelling, analysis...the only way to survive is with these things, we have the solution. We have a team who cares...who is proving that every day. Contact us today.

Pros

The culture at Anaplan is unlike any other company I've worked for. Frank, the CEO and most of the leadership team are very open and clear with our accomplishments what challenges and opportunities we face, while still keeping open communication to the entire company on where we're headed. Monthly company-wide FAQ sessions with the CEO foster the culture of openness and honesty. Even during recent stressful times (global pandemic) leadership has showed strength and certainty through these times, which has lifted the morale of plenty employees.

Cons

The Pros above apply only to the org not under the CIO. It's not an overstatement and it's clear: your career will not progress here and you will be miserable. You will be overworked, you will not be credited or praised. You will not have opportunities grow your career or experience. You will be disciplined for voicing your opinion. Verbal Harassment should be expected from the CIO on a consistent basis and HR or the ethics hotline will not help you. It's obvious the CFO cannot run an IT org so he hired a CIO and has ignored them since. The entire organization is treated as the step-child of the company by the CFO, and not one employee's concerns are heard. There is absolutely no way to submit anonymous feedback on management. Those who voice opinions and concerns about business decisions and aren't yes-men to the CIO are pushed out and replaced by someone who can only say yes, no matter how technically incompetent they are. All work falls down to lower level employees with absolutely no recognition. However, if you're looking for a high stress job where all management has absolutely no idea which direction to head and love team-wide meetings where you're verbally harassed over drops in video call performance, this is the job for you.
