      Pros

      Can’t think of anything at all

      Cons

      Management only thinks about earning revenues. They are not thinking about their employees at all.

      Software consolidator with top heavy management. High turnover and Corporate Restructuring resulting in layoffs.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      -Allowed for flexible work arrangements for employees not within commuting distance to a Corp office, and then all of a sudden a revision to their "workforce arrangement policy" deemed the majority of the roles would be strictly office based moving forward. Interesting spin! -Decent health benefits if you're a single participant -Very streamlined approach to acquiring and on-boarding acquired companies

      Cons

      -Miromanagement stems from the top here. Everything starts and ends with the CEO and the ELT -They claim there is quantifiable organic growth, but most don't believe it. Only interested in the next acquisition target with healthy maintenance revenue base. -The hardly recognize top performers and there is an overall sense they do not value people's contributions or feel it's important to retain good people. -Frequent layoffs that typically target employees that are virtual and part of an acquired company -They do not empower their people to make business decisions. Multiple levels of approval required for simple requests. -All about increasing customer renewal fees and positioning unrelated software from other struggling business units. Very much a sense it's all about further investments in ECM and holding a slight edge against other competitors.
