Pros

I've been with Guidewire for just over a year now, and I have thoroughly enjoyed my time here. My team are genuine and friendly, which has made my work environment really comfortable. I've been given support for any and every idea I've had too. The perks and benefits have been better than any company I've ever worked in, with rewards such as LTI and wellness stipends.

Cons

Progress on bigger projects can be slow due to multiple departments involved.

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.
