Pros

Career objectives and desires are taken into account. Communication is easy at all levels. We all do our best to help and encourage each other.

Cons

Some aspects of the job require good autonomy, which is not easy for everyone. There is a very broad amount of resources to help us in our job that is sometimes difficult to locate.

Pros

At Guidewire I've been consistently met with respect, collegiality, good communications, and a high level of competency and commitment in my teammates. Compensation, travel, benefits, and generally respectful positive interactions. Leadership is competent and engaged, and evaluations are well-structured and fair. The work is interesting, challenging, and utilizes my skills and talents fully. Guidewire is committed to outstanding products and services, and our great success derives from that commitment.

Cons

The work is so interesting that it's sometimes challenging to pull back into personal time.

Pros

relaxed enviorment, your work is always based on knowledge and fact - never emotion. Great stock amounts given when hired ( I assume based on level of hire). There is a huge investment in traing prior to becoming a billable resource.

Cons

401k for americans is less than desirable. phone remburisment is very low comparativly.
