Pros

-Flexible Time Off -Experienced/Strong CTO and VP of Engineering (as of the last 8-12 months) -Strong IT leadership (as of the last 8-12 months)

Cons

One of the least professional companies I’ve worked in: -frequent and not well planned layoffs (e.g. critical positions are laid off only to bring them back for more money, unclear financials causing repeat layoff actions in a relatively short period of time) -vendors not getting paid on time. Not jut weeks but months late. Many failed commitments in this area. Some vendors have adjusted how they do business with Accela . -significant cash flow problem, but may have been fixed by the recent sale of the business to a private investor -started with a great pool of talent, retention is now a problem -HR manages perception rather than root cause and meaningful fixes (e.g. “Great Place to Work” on email signatures-Do your own research.
