Pros

I would say that Aspen is a great first job for someone right out of college. Company is getting out of strict mentality but is not fully there yet

Cons

Internal processes are outrageous. Sales managers are asked to hit high barely attainable numbers. Getting a deal approved to submit a contract to customers can take upwards of two weeks. They discuss a customer centric mentality however this is rarely practiced.

AspenTech Response

10y

AspenTech is focused on internal process improvement. We have a dedicated team reviewing all of our internal processes in order to simplify how we do business. Change does not happen overnight, but we are committed to simplifying while making sure we maintain the operational discipline that helped us achieve our position of strength.

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.
