Pros
Castellan is the merger of three companies (Assurance Software, Avalution and Clearview/BisWeb). Those mergers too place over the last 3 years and have resulted in significant change. Each of these business existed for nearly 15 years priority joining forces. At the same time, management and the private equity owners are focused on integrating the companies and driving growth. From an employees - the company is increasingly focused on exiting people who can't/wont work for a growth company and replacing them with folks who are growth minded. If you're a top performer and like being challenged, that is really welcome to see. For some people that have been around for a while, it's pretty scary. So overall - the pros are that the company is growth oriented, and really focused on doing right by our existing customers (whom are spread across 3 different platforms).
Cons
There is a high degree of change. There are still a few pockets of folks that probably aren't right for our growth oriented future (but those are shrinking quickly). Management has been getting better at communicating where we are going and why.
