      Pros

      Company stock is performing well Breakfast is provided daily in HQ Compensation is competitive for the industry and region

      Cons

      A lot of the hiring is based on cronyism and nepotism, which demotivates existing employees Execs always say they have an open door policy, but they don't practice what they preach A lot of dysfunction in general with various teams, all about impressions vs the actual work product

      Pros

      Global company, excellent committed engineers, Financial controller top notch. Not the highest salaries but good benefits. Great reputation in the market. In terms of work/life balance, I find that is usually down to the individual.

      Cons

      Referring to the title of this review, they face some stiff competition from new companies who have same quality and added values at far lower price. It s difficult to see how they will differentiate themselves and protect churn with that in mind. Tendency to oversell their USP. Became very corporate and new C level management is turning this into another Oracle / HP etc.. Highly political environment, ambulance chasing and not merit rewarding. Its all about saying the right things to the right people . There is bullying and sneaky tactics at play, watch out for those letting you run the sale and then steal your compensation and recognition. If you have value and knowledge to bring, this is not the company for you. Suits those who don't mind spending 70% of their time watching their back and playing the political field.
