Pros

Strong company, good salary/commission structure & benefits, they are strong on continuing education training/seminars for their sales people.

Cons

Sometimes management would "make it hard to take a customer's money" because there were so many rules and regulations to follow in order to complete the sale.

Pros

The management is very good at supporting good work/life balance. They are quite good at paying above average. Good benefits and ESPP program.

Cons

Leadership lacks vision especially in AEC division. AEC division is racked by politics stemming from Revit acquisition years ago. Have to walk on eggshells and technical decisions are not respected because of political considerations. There are also severe lack of career growth options. You get stuck in a role and don't have a choice in moving around. Morale is quite low in AEC and talented people are leaving. Innovation is not encouraged and individuals who take the initiative are often told that it's not their job to go outside of their described responsibilities.
