Pros

Really like the people I work with, compensation is competitive, gaining great experience and skills, culture and co-workers are both mostly positive, company has great products and stand behind their products and promises, continuing growth and opportunities, plus our customers love Guidewire!

Cons

Sometimes the culture is too positive and doesn't address areas that can be improved. I'm surprised by a few long-term ongoing issues that negatively impact the people around me but continue to go on unadressed.

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.
