Pros
Some great products/solutions. Breadth of offerings to sell to enterprise customers. Few great and talented people still around.
Cons
They are too busy acquiring companies to fix what is already broken from all of the poor integrations and poorly executed salesforce implementations. All of the system burdens are on sales. Little to no back office support and they are so burned out that they do not even try to help. Systems take so much time away from actual selling. How can a company who sells data integrity and data governance have THOUSANDS of accounts that are the same company? All of the crazy workarounds to make a deal close are insane. Culture disregards how much experience or knowledge you have - they dismiss you. They could be in a role for a year and there are people who have been there 20 years but their feedback is useless/disregarded. Employees are not valued/ they are disposable. They will lay off a hundred to make a sale to another private equity look good. Then they will hire back twice as many at half the cost but with 1/4 the knowledge to back fill once the transaction is complete but all of the talent and knowledge is lost. It is a never ending cycle with private equity financing. Someone at the top is clearly profiting from this, the rest are just running the hamster wheel. There is Pressure to perform is fierce.
