Pure H, E, "double hockey stick"

Pros

There are absolutely no redeeming qualities of this company. Ineffective leadership, lack of strategic vision, and demoralizing culture and history of mistreatment of their employees.

Cons

The only side of the company is down. The entire sixth floor (executive suite) of Burlington HQ is walled off behind a locked door like the Wizards of Oz. The realization, however, is the same as it was for Dorothy - pure incompentence of an executive leadership team. The technology is long in the tooth, in a state of disrepair, and requires an extensive multi-year overhaul. Unfortunately for AspenTech, so is the development organization, in need of an extensive overhaul. The employees are leaving by the droves and the ones that have not left are those that cannot find another job. If you are considering employment at AspenTech, reconsider.

Pros

Peer group is exceptional but some of them get "disappeared". Self directed work. Customers appreciate what you do for them.

Cons

Management doesn't care about people leaving and the resulting loss of intellectual property. Stealth layoffs. CEO checks everyone's expense accounts himself. Management team is the Master of PowerPoints. HR is totally inflexible on company "policies". CEO's team are all yes men because he is so vindictive to those who disagree with him. Management has no understanding of the oil and gas business. Client companies hate Aspen because of its policies but can't go elsewhere (yet).
