Pros

- most staff are nice people so good to work with - office is great - desks, ergonomic chairs etc - high valuation of the company means potential for investment is good (if funds are used wisely)

Cons

- products are released with errors in a rush to get them out despite claims to the contrary - after sales service is very poor - customers often complaining but having paid money little they can do - press releases praising the company are not truthful - high series a valuation may prove to be an issue come series b time - valuation is inflated - co-founders are not very professional - speak in their own language in meetings and decisions seem to change making life difficult for the team. Their experience appears to be reasonably limited so company would really need to be run by someone who has extensive experience in the Bay Area to maximise its potential - interview process is a nightmare - there is an element of used car salesman in the sales of the product which while good would not really be considered ‘cognitive RPA’ despite it being promoted as such by the founders and marketing material

Hi - thank you for the candid review and for the care you took to detail specific areas of concern. I'm new here, and would love to do a post-exit interview with you to dig into your concerns. Please email me: vlad.coho@automationanywhere.com (anonymously, if that makes you more comfortable) so that I can learn more about areas to target for improvement.

Pros

Hardworking and nice teammates, hot technology space, work-life balance attainable (if you ignore the pressure)

Cons

Top-down "just do what we tell you to" management style, resource-strapped, convoluted processes in engineering and product; constant negotiating and arguing to move just a hair in the right direction—it's exhausting; potentially the least-approachable C-Suite and senior management of any place I've worked at.

Pros

1. Upcoming Industry 2. Microsoft Entry Makes Game Bigger

Cons

1. Promoters & Leaders far away from technology 2. Leadership lacks passion, check the videos where CEO fumbles 3. Products are dated and more or MVPs than Enterprise Grade 4. V11 & A2019 platforms why care core enterprise platforms, are not compatible with each other. YOU CAN NOT PORT YOUR V11 bits in A2019. So much for enterprise grade 😀. 5. IQ bot is MVP and not real product with high churn of customers. IQ not serious data privacy issues. 6. Sales teams make unreal promises and sell the moon. Engineering team build products in 4 walls and don’t have clue what customers want.

Your comments about our technology have been reviewed by our CTO and, as you know, he takes the feedback of our products very seriously. We are in full agreement that Microsoft's acquisition of Softomotive has brought even greater credibility to the technology we've known for a long time is a game-changer!
