Pros

Free snacks (when available) Good office location Covered parking Small ($500) 401(k) matching Open PTO (but do not take more than 2 weeks, otherwise you are seen as a slacker)

Cons

The "open door" policy sounds great. Until you realize that the people speaking up at company meetings are suddenly gone. I seriously think they encourage people to speak up, so they can identify, what HR calls, the "whiners".

Thanks for providing feedback for Accruent. We do hire very smart people and do want them to innovate and express ideas. I am so sorry that you (or teammates you may be referring to) have been labeled. Not okay. We all need to work together to build a great company. I can assure you that we want all of the smart people we can find to help us, especially if they also share our company values. Note: We introduced a 401K match in 2015 and it is far more than the $500 mentioned in this review. Best, 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.
