AspenTech reviews

- Operational decisions often necessitate the CEO's approval, causing bottlenecks and centralization. - Middle managers and VPs appear to navigate a culture of fear due to the 'My way or the highway' stance from C-level. - Turnover is anormaly high, particularly in the sales team, requiring constant recruitment efforts. - Customer renewals adhere to rigid legal perspectives, with little room for negotiation or customized solutions. - Despite solid technological foundations, the technology portfolio displays signs of aging. - Services options for customers are limited in scope, hindering comprehensive solutions. - The company's tech identity falls short of a full-fledged tech enterprise, hindering agility for micro-services and tailored data science solutions. - Compensation packages lack competitiveness. - Salary increments fail to keep up with inflation, and promotions occur at a sluggish pace. - The company's progress on Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) fronts is lagging, evidenced by a notable gender gap and underrepresentation of black professionals. I'd recommend to a friend using AspenTech as a stepping-stop to advance one's career, rather than a long-term position - All because of the under the current management paradigm.

Hierarchical, fear-based, relentlessly punishing place to work. No one is willing to try anything new because there is a constant threat of being fired. And it is not just assumed, they actually threaten firing regularly! Terrible culture. Worst place I have ever worked and would never recommend to anyone.
