Pros

Co-workers, Tech Support Leadership, product support.

Cons

I had to go to another Outplacement company to get support that resulted in my new job. I was sent to Lee Hecked Harrison and could not get anyone to help with my resume, LinkedIn or even how to network. Kept sending me to online videos instead of working with me. Two consultants I was working with quit or were fired. Tired of telling my lay off story to different phone hotline consultants each time. Very frustrating. Can’t believe ANSYS pays for this poor service.

Pros

Flexibility with WFH/Hybrid depending on your job/team Great starting PTO + decent sick/family time Challenging work Smart, hard-working co-workers People work here for decades because it's a great work culture

Cons

It's a software company. Cramming features in at the last minute, and requiring long hours from testing & doc to meet deadlines, is frustrating but not unexpected Benefits are just OK - lost all of my doctors when they stopped having one local insurance option If you're in R&D but not an engineer, you are undervalued for bonuses No upward path if you don't want to manage - eventually you stagnate and have nowhere to go Agile dev process is challenging for documentation and testing and is not always realistic with big projects Huge uncertainty after Synopsys buyout - I've had bad experiences with EDA companies undervaluing some jobs in the past (testing/doc] so not feeling any job security at the moment
