AspenTech reviews

Horrible culture of top down, autocratic management. They do not seek input, just give mandates. 100% risk averse - taking risks is asking to be fired. Workers are seen as chattel - you are just a number and easily replaced, be thankful you have a job and regular paycheck. Zero flexibility in working hours or location (cannot work from home - ever!). No one in the company is the champion for or advocates for the employee; HR is absent. Completely outdated tools / software. Most work is done via an excel spreadsheet. It takes hours to get even the most basic information, where most companies just push a button. Too many good employees are leaving the company.

Very poor leadership and management. There is no trust, and the VP's treat you like your children. Socializing is not allowed! Micro-managers all the way as if they didn't have enough to do. Very top heavy with management and some of the mangers are so unprofessional it's pathetic. Very low morale in all areas of the company. A good company begins with leadership. People are always leaving because of poor management, and HR is useless. Promotions are only giving to the favorites.
