Pros

There are a lot of really kind and talented people at Altium, and the work is interesting. There are always alot of interesting projects, and there tends to be a lot of opportunity for growth for the right people. If you have a good manager, and there are many, it is a great place to work. Benefits are very good.

Cons

The new CEO has brought a culture of top-down micromanagement, and employees are evaluated by how much time they spend at their desks rather than the quality of their work. And yes he walks around and checks. It has become a culture where people are scared to make a decision. And the only thing that matters is cost-cutting.

Pros

Strong growth and opportunities to develop and implement improvements. Excellent exposure across all branches of the organization and access to key resources. The team is highly supportive, with everyone committed to doing their best.

Cons

Frequent leadership changes and a disconnect between senior leadership’s mission/vision and what is experienced on the floor. Results are often driven by individual effort rather than standardized, repeatable processes, creating risk when key contributors leave. Accountability response is slow, and operating as a “company of companies” continues to present challenges.
