Pros

I am a full-time remote employee based out of Dublin. Started at GW during the pandemic but the onboarding process was smooth. The company culture atleast in the Dublin side seems to be great. Decent compensation, decent perks, and overall a good place to work. Very flexible work patterns.

Cons

Remote culture still needs a lot of work. There are few opportunities for team interaction if you're not office-based or not in the same time zone as your team. Insurance is a slow industry and this reflects in the growth opportunities and appetite for change within the company.

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.
