Pros

Lots of perspectives and opportunities. Good salary and package. Nice and friendly colleagues, good products and management easily accessible. This company keeps growing but is already a leader in its field.

Cons

Except that fact that it may be not a well known company in the IT industry, I do not see real negative point regarding this company. Compared to all my previous jobs, it is by far the best.

Pros

- You'll work with smart motivated people, with an extremely low amount of politics. Customer success is the overall focus, and you can see that from the top down, in all of the groups. - Guidewire's plan is to hire good people and keep them, so if you want a new role in the organization, doors will typically open for you.

Cons

It's not sexy. Your friends probably won't have heard about the company, and working on insurance industry software doesn't make for a fascinating elevator conversation.
