Pros

Attractive Benefits As per market compensation

Cons

Honestly the leadership in US is so bad that they had no clue that they are gonna be sold and kicked out of Synopsys. The US leadership team ignores India branch like they don't matter to them, I recall such a trashy transition process from SNPS to BD that no employee from India had any clue that what their company benefits are gonna look like, however all the other regions were informed well about their benefits prior to transition date. The CHRO is biased and trying to bring in her own people into the company specifically the people she has previously worked with, I've heard that she's also very rude and dictative with her direct reportees.

Pros

*Good people. *Smart people. *Good product.

Cons

*Black Duck is a mess. *People are in survival mode. *Morale is low. *Pay is low compared to the industry. *Private equity just let the CEO and CRO go and as a result they've installed their own CEO and CRO. Who by the way are odd with no personalities. Very awkward and robotic. *It has become a very cut throat environment. *They are laying off across the board, especially in sales and it you're not laid off, they have begun to put people on PIPs. *Inbound leads are scarce. *Not much of a channel program to speak of. *Sales folks are required to quote/sell implementation services without quota relief and only partial commission pay. *Some leadership at the director level are just not polished and frankly are bizarre. *This place is a mess. Lots of employee turnover, lay offs and lots of customer turnover. Retention is horrible. *STAY AWAY.
