Great product, awful leadership

Software engineer

Business Outlook

Pros

Great product and well ahead of the current market in its value proposition. A workplace culture that is hard to beat, and practiced core values that inspire healthy working relationships.

Cons

Apcera has a great product, but in some ways they have a big problem with ineffective leadership on several teams and some communication problems that punishes employees who show initiative. Engineering leadership scrambles to release deliverables on a set date basis, but with understaffed development teams this means little to no testing at crunch time. The CEO is hardly ever present and seemingly checked out. It's hard not to notice long-term staff leaving these past few months.

Sliding Downhill, fast

Business Outlook

Pros

Technically competent teams working on a visionary product. Apcera has been trying to fit their idea into the market with little success.

Cons

For a company that touts innovation there are far too many managers, and a serious problem with nepotism resulting in out of touch, aged out leadership. This drives frustration with ever changing direction and lack of reasonable workflows. A CEO who disengaged long ago that allows middle managers to make bad decisions resulting in tremendous turnover and loss of talent.
