      Less than a 'Great Place to Work'

      Software engineer

      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      * Work with big names in the industry * Access to a useful network of travel alerts, promotional offers, and other corporate benefits * Half hour early release on Thursdays

      Cons

      * Heavily sales-oriented -- customer deals drive development and dictate roadmaps, leading to rapidly shifting priorities that aren't necessarily best for the long-term health of the product * Architecture decisions often dictated by executives and middle management with low technical literacy * Support dated technologies and legacy code with little room to negotiate for internal improvements * Patchwork of integrations resulting from a product portfolio built through aggressive acquisitions * Compensation $10,000/year below industry standard for my field and experience

      Never believe an Acquisition will help you

      Pros

      Great to be part of Dassault Systemes and feel like there was room for growth inside the company. Benefits were great.

      Cons

      Was part of a team purchased purely to make BIOVIA more "well rounded" but the first thing they did was start cutting our staff. Management didn't even attempt to cleanly integrate our personnel into the company before deciding whom to fire. Promises to keep our office local were thrown out the window within 3 months, moved our space further into the bay area increasing the commute for 18 of the 20 people in the office.

      Pros

      -Many weekly perks like lunch, happy hour, and bagels -Well paying for market rate -Nice offices -Good benefits package (At least for now)

      Cons

      -Very political environment with a "not my department" feel -Hard work and strong efforts are barely recognized or rewarded -Almost everything completed 11th hour, needed upper level contacts are often MIA -Post-acquisition integration of companies is absolutely horrid
