Pros
Company meetings are in international locations Products can do some amazing things if pitching to the right audience Not much micro-management (my experience)
Cons
Management preaches a big family, yet fires managers at Christmas Parties, or the day before they are to leave for the company trip for a week... very inconsistent. Also the replacements to the fired individuals show up the next day, so it is all planned. Management has no (BI) industry experience except for this company, and it shows. The product was leading edge 5 years ago, and now others have caught up. Qliktech had a chance to be a major player, but it is over now. There was a buzz about an IPO, but who knows when/if that will happen. They claim other competitors being bought is a victory for them, but the reality is they got passed over and now the competition is stronger than ever. There are worse things than being bought or even going under... they are dying a slow death. From a career perspective, knowing Qlikview won't get you far outside of Qliktech. Working for BOBJ/MSTR/Cognos wil provide you with better skills while earning more money. When the end comes for Qliktech, you will wish you'd been someplace else.
