I WILL NOT EVEN RECOMMEND TO MY WORST ENEMY - Principal Consultant AspenTech Employee Review

Pros

Everyday something new to learn and there are some good co-worker there and that is the only thing I can think of.

Cons

Promotion is not based on your performance but it is based on how long you been with company, No recognition to your work, you are not allowed to make suggestion and even if you do no one will listen, will find every opportunity to extract last penny out of you. Also, company policy will vary with your boss's need everyday, one day you will NOT allowed to work from home due to company policy and other day you will be asked to work from home and at that point no one will refer to company policy. In short, I WILL NOT EVEN RECOMMEND TO MY WORST ENEMY to work for this company!

Business Outlook

Pros

Good products with large customer base. Product development is innovative and willing to work directly with customers. Base pay for sales reps is improving after the acquisition by Emerson Electric. The Emerson Electric acquisition is received positively by the customers. Internal training is good and readily available. Collaboration between the various departments is excellent.

Cons

New management is focused on running the sales organization by spreadsheet metrics vs. obtaining and improving customer relationships. Product pricing and sales approval processes are very complex. Customers are seen as captives and when they request reasonable changes to their contract, they are often denied if there is not significant revenue growth (results in bad relationships). Sales management is spending more time in internal meetings than with customers and their reps.
