Pros

With the mass exodus of employees of talent, it might open up some career growth - as long as the executive leadership doesn't decide to save money by making people work two jobs.

Cons

Since being acquired by Clearklake/Newfold working here has been hell. The CEO is an absolute joke of a leader and is universally hated, not respected, and mocked. He constantly puts his foot in his mouth addressing the company, and if he doesn't hard, LEGITIMATE questions he gets extremely defensive and even angry. The pay is a joke and hard work is not rewarded. The most recent average merit increase was 1.5%. The hardwork of lower-level employees was unrewarded while the Manager Incentive Plan pays out large bonuses to the higher-level leadership of the organization. The product is an absolute joke and has no direction. If I were a customer and had an ounce of inside knowledge about how the product is designed and decisions are made for enhancements and fixing bugs - I would cancel immediately and look at a competitor.
