Pros

I genuinely loved working at Granicus, and would go back if offered a position. I loved working alongside my boss, and the leadership team above him as they all encouraged & enabled me freedom to grow and upskill by taking on diverse projects with autonomy. -Cross-Functional collaboration always supportive -Encouraging team members, who always take the opportunity to educate -Great leadership team across most functions at the VP & Director level (this is where I have experience)

Cons

-Acquisition integration has been historically rocky at times, but, I think through experience the organization will seek to do better by existing employees at both companies.

Pros

PTO Benefits and WFH 100%

Cons

Unfortunately, the biggest challenge at this company was the management style. Leadership consistently demonstrated a lack of respect for their teams, treating employees as expendable rather than valued contributors. Communication was poor, decisions were made without transparency, and constructive feedback was often dismissed. This created a toxic SRT environment where morale and motivation were low. The result was an environment where employees felt undervalued, unsupported, and demoralized, and felt sorry for the LATAM resources and how they perceived the company.
