      Pros

      Fun culture with great coworkers and good benefits

      Cons

      Company’s a sinking ship. Leadership is incompetent. Sales enablement is a joke. Zero consistency.

      Pros

      Working in the marketing department, you have a lot of freedom to take chances, explore new opportunities, and the freedom to get shadowing experience

      Cons

      The turnover rate is incredibly high within marketing because everyone is worked to the point of burnout. Although they are consistently hiring, there is just too much work to keep up with. Also, this is one of the least diverse companies I have worked at. Not D&I team either. It's a bit sad.

      Pros

      Absolutely the best Low Code platform on the market. Growth has been amazing. Employee support from a Covid perspective is above and beyond. Unlimited PTO. Extensive health insurance options. Competitive base salary. Exceptional engineering expertise.

      Cons

      Even with record revenues, Appian has hit a wall. I have high expectations the new CRO will shake up the organization. Legal has too much say in pricing deals. Legal needs to treat internal customers with respect. Commission structure needs reevaluated. I do expect this to be addressed for 2021. US top leadership needs to be more engaged and stop playing favorites.
