Pros

Very few pros nowadays, but the work mates are great overall, and interesting customers (who unfortunately are getting seriously screwed by Aptean).

Cons

Upper management has no clue how to run a software company. Administration and reporting in absurdum, so much time/energy wasted to report the work that therefore fails… Management has no belief in its experienced workers, who actually are the company’s biggest asset. Minimum staff in all core operations (development/engineering, support, services etc.) and endless freedom for some to come up with new complicated work methods/processes. I could go on forever…

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.
