Terrible company, great people

Pros

-Good benefits -Good coworkers and managers up to & including the VP level -Competitive starting salary for new employees -Products are market leaders and company will continue to do well.

Cons

-Raises and promotions are almost non-existent. -Nothing is done by the executive team to retain valuable employees. Even the brightest people are treated like commodities, regardless of their contributions to the company. -The turnover rate in most departments, and at every job level, is ridiculous by any standards. Those who stay more than a year are either looking for new jobs or feel prohibited from leaving by their outside responsibilities. -The constant turnover makes progress impossible, with all time being consumed either by covering others' jobs or training new hires. -Executives are in a constant battle to be more powerful than each other, to the detriment of everyone beneath them. They preach collaboration while fighting to keep each other down, managing to get in the way of progress and even day-to-day operations.

Inside sale account manager

Pros

Culture is great. Everyone at Aspen are really good people. Average Benefits. Not the best. Not the worst. Frequent company "AspenFUN" days.

Cons

The company as a whole is very disorganized. Promotions are minimum. The Inside Sales team is less than 10 years old so they're still trying to figure things out. Every 6 months or so the upper management changes the sales structure. You get hired for one job and then are told you have to do something completely different. The Commission is not paid out for 3 months and this is only if the customer pays. So you can close a deal get "credit" for it but not paid. Upper Management treats their employees like children. Work/life balance is minimal. You can't officially work from home, it's really up to your management and what your role is.

Awesome health benefits, but that's about it

Pros

AspenTech has really good benefits and they seem to get progressively better year over year.

Cons

Your job can really suck depending on your manager. It's hard to understand how some of these managers earned their positions and have managed to stay here. But I guess when you have everyone else doing the work you take credit for it's pretty easy.
