Pros

Very little. No idea why anyone would work here. The only reason would be if you are in the planning space or enjoy working in a toxic environment.

Cons

Toxic management, sales leaders, micromanagement. Constantly blamed for results while management walk all over people. Bullying from colleagues who are favourites from managers. Very little communication accross teams, no transparency, everyone has their own ways, outdated and traditional culture of work. Long hours and no team events, benifits have been stripped. Constantly blamed for results and my hard work. No idea why people want to work here it's a horrible place. Product is being run down by competition. Wish I stayed at my old workplace.

Pros

Awesome technology, clear winner in the EPM space. Management is great at creating a strong feeling of "team," amongst the employees. We are able to do this by beating down the workforce with little opportunity for advancement, and minimal to no support. This helps create strong bonds between employees, while saving large amounts of money so we can pay upper management as much as possible. Additionally, the company culture is spectacular here, with lots of emphasis on the culture. Anaplan has a great company culture, everyone knows that. The culture is clear, and we focus on culture.

Cons

Greedy employees constantly criticizing upper management's decision making. They constantly disrupt and pester management with requests like "please pay us more, because we are working the equivalent of two jobs." Guess what? That's how salary works, if you don't like it, dust off your resume. Anaplan isn't a charity for the masses, it's a funnel for a few people at the output. Employees need to understand this and stop requesting additional compensation that matches the amount of work they do. Working long hours? Just work faster, that's on you. Those same selfish employees are constantly asking "What is the company culture?" If you have to ask, then you clearly don't get it. Regardless I clearly laid out the culture in the "Pros" section.
