Pros

Huge market - high on the agenda for most organisations, and especially the largest one. Just have a look at the list of blue chip customers and partners Technology breakthrough - unique on the market. Users love it and are vocal about (some even wrote songs about it and cartoons) Huge careers opportunities, as the company is doubling size every year, it creates a lot of opportunities and bridges between different jobs. Management not opposed to being creative Broad spectrum of applications spanning many line of business in an organisation (Finance, Sales, HR, Operations) and industries (Insurance, High Tech, CPG, Manufacturing..) Competition with top tier Mega vendors as well as Pure players - high win rate. Backed with 1st class VC's (who are also supporting disrupting companies such as Tesla, SpaceX, Facebook, Twitter, Salesforce, Workday ..) Very demanding environment where it is sometimes better to ask for forgiveness rather than permission! Equities are worth the difference in terms of salary/benefit

Cons

doubling size/tripling nb of users every year mean the company has to adapt to change of scale very rapidly, as well for the people. Balance with personal life - if you enjoy your job, it will be perfect - Anaplan invites spouse/family to some events when possible since they are indirectly involved in building the ANAPLAN culture and company

Pros

regional culture works well. product used to be good and ahead ... (but kinda behind on AI adoption and use)

Cons

one would think the culture is based on meritocracy but lots of parachuting and nepotism... lots of new faces brought in that are benefiting from actions of those that left or made redundant
