Pros

I like to think of a Anaplan as a small, fast growing, dynamic and agile company that takes itself seriously. The product is just epic, so powerful and disruptive, displacing the big boys who thought they owned the space. The calibre of my colleagues is top notch, learning so much just working alongside them. Lots of opportunities everywhere. Remote working makes the work/life balance easier to manage.

Cons

Everyone's super busy and things are constantly changing... It's good and bad. Not working in San Francisco (Head Office), it's sometimes easy to feel "out of the loop"... Never for long though. Managing meetings and calls in different time-zones is a challenge sometimes.

Pros

The product is highly differentiated and powerful in the EPM/connected planning space Competitive compensation structure with strong earning potential Talented sales professionals and smart colleagues Exposure to enterprise-level clients and complex deals

Cons

Poor Marketing in APAC Marketing strategy lacks clear direction and data-driven decision-making. Insufficient localization for international markets. Limited understanding of local customer behavior and cultural differences. Global campaigns are often rolled out without proper regional adaptation. Advice to Management: The company needs to invest more in localized marketing expertise and empower regional teams to adapt campaigns appropriately. A stronger data-driven marketing strategy and deeper understanding of local markets would significantly improve performance and brand perception.
