      Good place for developers who want to do good, steady work with no crisis-mode

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Sane working hours, partly due to SCRUM and "sustainable pace". Good work environment. Really sharp people. Good ratio of product managers and QA to developers. Great market placement. Good work/life balance.

      Cons

      Guidewire has a substantial proprietary technology stack. Some of what you learn won't transfer out. Low turnover means the injection of new ideas is slower than at some places.

      Good place for software engineers

      Qa engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      You get to work with some brilliant people who really know software and care a good deal about craftsmanship. Great culture and work ethic of the people there. In some ways Guidewire is a picture perfect software company.

      Cons

      It's only true if you're a software engineer. Woe betide you if you're in a different department. Hard to get information and requirements (at least this was true when I worked there).
