Pros

Great w/l balance. Not extremely demanding. Really nice people who are easy to collaborate with - most want to do 'good'. A lot of change happening.

Cons

Exec team misaligned. Parental leave is terrible (worst maternity leave for a company I've worked for). Lots of people at 'the top' have been here 20+ years who hinder true innovation.

Thanks for your feedback. The breadth and depth of our expertise and experience is rooted in higher education and technology with a customer first mindset. Our executive team - and in fact, our broader employee population - includes a great mix of both long-tenured employees as well as those who have been with us a short amount of time. This blend creates a culture of innovation, collaboration and learning - one in which we all work together to power higher education so institutions can empower student success. Regarding parental leave, we recognize how incredibly important it is to support caregivers at that juncture in their life. We have maternal and paternal policies in place and we are actively exploring how to further improve these programs to provide the best support to our employees and their families.

Pros

Flexibility of remote work Great peers that are helpful Decent benefits

Cons

Upper and Middle Management are awful More interested in vibe/buzz words rather than teaching you expectations the role Private Equity money is bringing in clowns from Boeing and Microsoft to manage implementations and shifts to the cloud. Lots of ego, no delivery to customers Embarassment working with clients when they see many architects, consultants, and PMs are incompetent (due to trickle down from upper mgmt) Lies about assigning you clients in your time zone. I had clients in 4 time zones with one being a 12 hour difference.
