      Pros

      New CRO brings a culture of solid work ethic, togetherness, tackling issues head-on, and competitiveness. Advent of AI is really a sweet spot for this industry and company - existing to see how the market adopts to it.

      Cons

      Lots of roadmap promises - expected to create sale results with features not yet available. Continual issues with payroll mistakes, and confusion around comp plan YoY changes. Some leaders still haven't committed to a partner first selling motion.

      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.
