Pros

Anaplan’s cloud planning platform enables an organization to run virtually any planning process by connecting data, people, and plans in every part of a business. Connected planning can be achieved at any scale—from a single use case within one business unit to enterprise-wide connected planning across hundreds of processes, and everything in between. Anaplan’s platform is the most flexible, scalable, and collaborative cloud planning system in the world today.

Cons

Growing pains of an organisation moving from a start up into a fully blown corporate player

Pros

- Best leadership & team I have ever worked with - Fantastic products (leaders in Gartner magic quadrants) - Excellent culture & camaraderie within teams - Smart people - Respectful & supportive environment - Transparent environment (open communication. Ideas are heard & good ideas get executed) - Growth opportunities if you are a high performer

Cons

- Not for everyone. A a mature start up with a lot of moving parts. Need to be able to run at Anaplan speed - Nowhere to hide if you are not a performer

Very toxic Culture

Pros

Good product, there is a lot of space for it in the market. Besides the product there isn’t a ton else I would consider a pro

Cons

Very toxic work culture, leadership is poor from managers to directors to VP’s. There is no room for career growth unless you are a buddies with someone higher up. This company is highly political, more so than anywhere else I have ever worked. I would never recommend anyone to join this company.

Thank you for taking the time to write your review. We think it’s a great product too and believe we are incredibly unique and disruptive in the market. Regarding the culture and leadership, we’re sorry you feel this way. We’ve taken tangible action over the past year to address and build upon what we think already is a great culture. We’ve launched new values, one of which is “living above politics” and introduced Reality Based Leadership. We pride ourselves in being a company that values and rewards people that GSD (“get stuff done”).
