Pros

The "Legacy" employees and some of the new ones are great to work with.

Cons

Since the acquisition benefits have been cut drastically. All of the upper management positions have been filled by people from other Vista Equity Companies. Whole departments have been cut since PowerSchool doesn't believe in Contract Employees. Employees who were with the company prior to the acquisition are referred to as "Legacy", definition of legacy "denoting software or hardware that has been superseded but is difficult to replace because of its wide use."

Pros

The company is huge with lot of sub divisions because they acquire all the time. Latest tech and skills

Cons

Since I was part of the Acquired company, they kept the salary very low and I tried to remind them about my position and compensation a few times that give me what my position deserves , I was laid off in 2 days despite of great performance. Lay off happened as part of quarterly but in heart I knew I was not going to be a part of that if I did not ask for raise. not treated well at all. My position was remote.
