Pros

Great people, best in the field. Industry leaders

Cons

Avid has had a series of misguided leadership teams that has completely ignored the business we are privileged to serve. They have no idea how to deliver industry leading products to the customers. Instead, the only thing they know is data and spreadsheets. No plan for product improvement or delivery to market. Terrible communications internally and a general sense of a rudderless ship. Do not believe the fake reviews entered on Glass Door. Most of them come from Marketing. The real talent in the company is streaming out the door.
