Pros

Work-life balance/hours are reasonable Good benefits and office amenities like gyms, cafeteria, good views, unlimited PTO, happy hours, pond to walk, snacks, etc. Empowering culture, management really emphasizes the value of each of employee and how they want everyone's voices to be heard A lot of learning/growth opportunities to build skills and advance your career

Cons

5 days a week in person can be a con for some, but this was pre-covid reality so can't blame the decision. Full time in person is definitely better for learning opportunities, especially early on in a career, but one remote day could be nice

Thank you for the kind words! We're so glad to hear you’re enjoying the culture, your teammates, and the support from leadership. Appian was built on a culture of in-person collaboration, which we believe is a key driver of our mission to be the best. We understand the return-to-office and commute challenges, and we appreciate you sharing that feedback. Thanks for being part of the team!
