Pros

The benefits are solid, although 401k's are not matched very highly. Those who do the majority of the work are dedicated and generally a pleasure to work with.

Cons

Advancement is virtually impossible as they instead heap additional work on a declining workforce. Favoritism is huge and those who are not based at world headquarters are quickly forgotten. Middle management is set up to fail with too much work for too few people, and the talented depart first. They also make promises to those who they want to keep (raises, promotions), but then fail to follow through. Upper management has a clear plan for reducing redundant teams (following the prior team's buy up of numerous smaller companies), but this has also had an effect of forcing square projects into round holes. The projects that need to happen in order to keep revenue coming and reduce expenses operationally are therefore delayed and subject to massive cost overruns.

Pros

I was with PB Software and the latest technology is really Enterprise and World-class, flexible work environment as long as you deliver. Benefits are in line with most companies.

Cons

Company is going through a massive transformation for the good, however execution is a bit spotty. Brand (mail) is hard to over come and despite hiring a CMO to re-brand one year later nothing done. more smoke than fire. Nobody knows PB for anything other than mail, up hill battle. Software group leadership is heavily weighted to former Infor people, not impressed.

Pros

Great work-life benefits. Good people to work with.

Cons

The leadership has made some improvement in the past, but overall the company is struggling. Recent hires are all bottom of the barrel. Top of the line, high quality employees have left for good long time back. The company is struggling, and employees are like zombies, like robots waiting for their death, no vision nor strategy is clearly communicated to employees.
