Pros

this company walks its talk: it lives, at least 90% of the time, to its professed values of "integrity, rationality, collegiality"; I am given a reasonable amount of (mostly) meaningful work to do, which is challenging but not overwhelming

Cons

They changed their employee feedback system so instead of a written report you get a quarterly "dialog" with your manager. This is meaningless.

Pros

NA, can't think of anything positive anymore. It's a micromanaging mess.

Cons

Guidewire makes majors shift every 2 years and the last one to take PgM out of PD into its own department is a micromanaging nightmare. We have more status meetings and spreadsheets to update than time to do any work anymore. 3 places to update if I want to take PTO. 7am and 7pm meetings are now the norm. 6 bosses in 10 years, no one can make up their mind on the direction of the company, projects start and are abandoned constantly.
