Pros

The company provides opportunity for flexible hours and telecommuting options. They offer competitive salary with bonus for those with proven track record

Cons

Lack of management engagement with the "worker bee". At the time there seemed to be no avenue for providing suggestions for improvement or ideas for involvement.

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.
