Manhattan Associates reviews

Work life balance is not good. CYA culture and back stabbing. Terrible place for "senior" employees. Too many pampered college students hung up on where they went and the football teams. Most have never had a callous on their hands. To MGMT an "experienced hire" seems like anyone over 25. The work space is not good. Sit at a counter basically with people right next to you. Consultants routinely load hours on clients that don't hold them accountable. Consultants are held accountable for their bill ratio, so they inflate hours on the indiscriminate clients. And its common knowledge.

- After 3-4 years, there typically are fewer opportunities for advancement (unless you are an overachiever or superstar workaholic). - The pay still lags the industry average. - From a technology standpoint, they stick with "tried and true" rather than cutting edge. If you are technical and want to work on the cutting edge, this isn't the place for you. - Work-life balance is a problem in PSO (and CSO to a lesser extent). They have been trying to improve this the last couple years, but it is still the #1 reason people leave. - It can sometimes be tough to take vacations when you want it, even with reasonable notice, due to project work. - Sales, account management, and upper management have a habit of over promising to win contracts... - ...and in an effort to keep clients happy, management doesn't do a good job of adjusting expectations which results in folks in PSO having to put in long hours, travel more than they would like, and occasionally work on weekends. This is the exception rather than the rule, but still happens more often than it should. - There are a handful of directors and managers that shouldn't be managing people. MA needs to do a better job identifying these people and either coaching them up, putting them in another role, or letting them go. - The work environment has become more corporate over the years. It is more structured, but less dynamic than it used to be.
