Pros

+ Appian employees are smart and driven high performers who are motivated to do their best work. Employees have access to executives and overall, it's a fun and friendly crowd. You can't ask for better colleagues. + Appian is a technology company and it's got an excellent product. We drink our own champagne at Appian and use our product across functional departments for various processes. + Appian has a great culture of intelligence, meritocracy and community that the four founders started 14 years ago. The company is also committed to client success and product innovation. + Appian has been growing in company size, customer base, license bookings, and other metrics. As a small, private company, it offers many opportunities for employees to rotate or transfer between different departments, relocate overseas, and move up quickly if you're a star.

Cons

+ Compare to some of the other larger companies, the benefits are not as generous but it has been getting better.

Pros

Opportunity. You can gain a lot of experience very quickly: both on client sites and also internally. Appian can be demanding but fair. I have learned a great deal and grown quickly as part of the Professional Services department. If you show good leadership, dependability, and competence Appian may allow you to make a permanent base in a non-office location. Without a doubt, and probably unparalleled benefit to working at Appian is the people. Appian has recruited some of the brightest and most personable people around.

Cons

Appian is definitely a full time job -- especially if you are on a demanding project. Top-level communication has some room to grow.
