Pros

Great industry positioning. It has become a near monopoly for it's SaaS vertical (P&C). There's not too much pressure to deliver, and enough room to think and plan the right solutions

Cons

Compensation and benefits are above average, but the C level keeps thinking PA has limited opportunities and people will stick around. They may learn the hard way that's not true!

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.
