Pros

Tons of information about the companies finances available during a monthly meeting. The norm...free pop, snacks. Management acts like they want your input.

Cons

As the title says, I was with another company that was consumed by Accruent. They left the company mostly intact initially, but after a year, less that 50% of the employees remained, and those that survived the cut were basically yes men. Management was huge on preaching speak your mind, "fierce conversations", and openness, but in the end, it was just a ruse to weed out the free thinkers. Great company to work for, if you are a robot, or like to say yes regardless of the idiocy of the suggestion put forth.

Pros

Lots of potential across their portfolio. Standard benefits. OK work/life balance (if you're remote). Very interested in creating a culture of improvement - but not necessarily innovation like you'd expect at a software company (See Cons).

Cons

Parent company is way too involved and tries to run this software company like a hardware company (which is most of their portfolio). Aging tech and design of their product portfolio. There was a very toxic political culture when I was there, but that may have changed. Lots of brain drain over the past few years of their most experience leaders and software engineers. No equity (except for some "high potential" hires and some VPs and above... which creates rifts between the haves, the have nots and management - it's common that a high demand new hire gets equity like AI engineers and data scientists, but their manager does not have equity and has to be able to answer questions about their equity as part of their comp.
