Pros
There were some nice people there. In a lot of ways the experience was a great lesson in what not to do. The CEO of the company is great, and I definitely hope he can turn things around.
Cons
If I had to sum up my experience at FinancialForce with one word, it would be Arrogance. Management seems to think that their thoughts come directly from the word of God, and any thoughtpiece that goes against what they say gets met with scorn. Even when pointing out mistakes, such as using improper industry terms in client facing materials, or basic lessons in statistics, gets countered with a mere "We paid a consultant for this, so it is right" despite the fact that they are objectively wrong. It is no surprise that the company is now failing every single sales metric that they need to not fail to be successful (new business, pipeline, retention rate). Also, they have a culture of hiring from outside as opposed to promoting from within. It was a struggle to get any department to take me seriously for a lateral move, yet I had many top tier companies in the Bay Area considering me for an external promotion. It should be the opposite, sadly, here at FinancialForce it is not. In short, not a very good investment of your career and time.
