Pros

The release schedule constantly shifts but is usually a few months out, allowing for a decent work/life balance. The company is essentially fully remote, which most people enjoy.

Cons

After two rounds of layoffs, company culture is virtually nonexistent. Team members are treated more or less as a cog in a machine that can be replaced anytime. Expectations are typically unrealistic and not really what customers want, which reflects poorly on the teams who worked hard to make things happen instead of heads of product taking the fall. All those with the most knowledge have been cut and replaced by contractors or new members in India with a lack of documentation and are expected to "fix the problem for good", even if they don't know where to start. Overall, this will result in a slowdown of research and development and a loss of customers. This company is headed towards bankruptcy, or they'll probably use whatever money they have left to acquire companies and treat them as assets before they close shop.

Pros

Remote or hybrid capability. Usually a flexible schedule.

Cons

Constant quiet firing. They've figured out how to avoid public disclosures quite well. Every month they're whacking batches of 20~30 employees - esp. if you were in a higher pay band or part of an acquired company. There's constant leadership churn as of late - not that leadership was ever that great, but the clownshow has more makeup on the pigs now. If you were part of an acquired company, the stench of nepotism was constant. Hyland doesn't provide legitimate training or certification assistance for everyone. Their products would fail any sort of security scan by an AI tool too. If you're a customer, buyer beware.
