Pros

At least I'm not unemployed yet.

Cons

Seems like everything is decided by holding company Vista Equity Partners They want to replace experienced higher paid employees with low paid inexperienced ones Aptitude test results carry more weight than past employment history The most hardcore non-compete agreement I have ever seen. This has to be illegal! Don't sign and your out of a job. Sign and you can't work for any company in a related industry for to 2 years.

Pros

Great environment, the culture is truely incresible

Cons

Slight last of confidence in the future. Recent re-orgs, very single threaded in critical support areas, and ambiguity around when functionalities/tech will be launch give a bit of concern.

Pros

The salary is good if you negotiate at entry into the company. They also have a good bonus structure when you hit the marks and get it. People in product and services are generally good people.

Cons

Raises are almost non-existent, if you get promoted, it is almost as if you didn't get a raise. Being in services is almost like living under a rock, you will not get visibility in any other area of the company. Extremely HIGH turnover in consultants and leadership. Not somewhere I would recommend somewhere who wants to learn and continuously grow in their career in the long term.
