Pros
Applied Software earned and deserved rhe accolades it received. The people are rock stars, and leadership was able to instill high morale for the teams.
Cons
The acquisition destroyed this company. Pay and benefits have been slashed to create the illusion of increased profitability. Senior leadership, especially those brought in by Graitec lack any clue how to run a reseller org in the US. HR was a joke before, and they have destroyed any credibility they had parroting Graitec’s “improvements.” Graitec’s unstated goal is clearly to churn away existing, higher paid employees at the cost of our customers’ experience. The new folks they are hiring are green, clueless, and ineffective. This is a trend that leadership seemingly wholeheartedly endorses based on the choices they have made.
