Pros

Benefits Commute Smart people Clean offices Decent computer equipment

Cons

The lack of respect is apalling. The demeaning and insulting way that managers talk to their employees breed fear and de-motivation. And you don't dare go to HR, it's all part of the corp culture.

Pros

stable company, competitive benefits, fair wages, interest work environment, always something different and challenging, and the company has attracted very talented hard working, ethical resources.

Cons

The place is an absolute monarchy. You do not want to stand up and be counted, rather hunker down for fear of being yelled at.

Pros

Easy Commute, free coffee and tea, good lighting in cubicles, lots of parking, cafeteria in building, highway access is good. They are upfront about the fact that they do not value their employees - so you don't have a lot of expectations about how you will be treated - they are honest in that regard. Good product!

Cons

- A very anti-employee company - If you are a foreign employee being sponsored by AspenTech, please think carefully - you might find yourself in a situation where you can't get out easily - Hostile work environment - that filters down through the entire company and is actually encouraged internally - Senior Management have terrible reputations as "screamers" - the CEO in particular - Very poor communication overall - Company wastes tons of money by continuing to follow processes that don't work (ironic that AT produces "Process Improvement" software LOL ;-) - Teamwork and initiative are constantly undermined by management
