Pros

Free beer and snacks (when available)

Cons

Financially shaky. Hired and fired based on the order book. When a large customer left they fired people at will. When they got a new order they hired. Only that hiring took months. So people were overworked and left, and it got even worse. Support was the place to be. Good management. Professional Services was the worst. It was going down the drain fast. Development somewhere in between. Paid about 25% under market. Benefits went from bad to worse in 2015. You can get better through Obamacare. No 401(k) match for new hires. No training opportunities. Sweat shop mentality. Lot of talk about their "values". Truth is the only thing that mattered was EBITDA. They would do anything to cut cost, including cutting the benefits to the bone.

I am sorry that we weren't a good fit for you. Hopefully you have found an environment that engages you and fosters your career goals. Note: We have increased benefits, not cut them. And we have a 401(k) match for employees. Wayne Roberts Chief Operating Officer

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.
