Pros

Good solutions with an "ERP concept solution" Established and recognized company over the world Very profitable company Salary is average Low pressure Good work-life balance

Cons

Executive and Senior Management live in an ivory tower. "We power the hospitality industry!" Very poor client services values Softwares adapted to a certain market (US) and too complicated to use for the industry they are addressing to (design and usability) Poor long term vision due to lake of engagement in the SaaS model Opaque communication (from US to EU, from EU to subsidiary, from Senior Mgt to employees), the worst is when it is a matter of products and services information... Very poor internal tools to help structure the company and avoid the terrible administrative mess Very reluctant to the change Closed minded people working in the company since years and locking any changes to enhance the way everything is done it's like you were saying people you met extraterrestrial life...

Pros

I work in the Hotel Systems Division My managers have all been great and I like the people I work with. I think upper management honestly appreciates my efforts. I feel that I am rewarded and recognized for the work that I do. MICROS has been good to me and I feel very fortunate to be able to work there. There are many opportunities for growth and advancement. This would be a great place for a recent college grad with some hotel or restaurant experience to start a career, or for anyone with industry experience and an interest in technology. For an entry level installer position, be prepared to travel nearly 100% of the time, which can be fun and is certainly interesting. I don't know what the recent acquisition of MICROS by Oracle will mean to the future of MICROS, but I'm excited about it. I would recommend MICROS to anyone who is deemed qualified to work there.

Cons

There were some conerns in the past about the lack of culture at MICROS. Some of this was fueled by comments from disgruntled employees. The culter is much better though, and it continues to improve. It seeems like the better you are, the harder they work you. This is espcially impactful to travelling employees. The better ones hit the road while the losers sit at home. They tend to not have enough employees for the work that needs to be done, so the existing staff has to work that much harder and I think in the end it's the customers who suffer.
