A good place to start, hard place to jump into

Pros

Good work/life balance, smart & creative co-workers, above average training opportunities. Ignition is an amazing product to support and work with which means 90%+ of customer interactions are highly positive. Folks are very helpful at Inductive, though sometimes answers come with a trial size dose of snark. Incentives for meeting goals can be fun, if not quirky at times. Honestly, I wish it could have worked for me. This is a great place to start your career off the ground before life comes at you with baggage.

Cons

Benefits are bare minimum. If you have a family don't plan on using IA's insurance option for your dependents, it's take it or leave it and is high premium, high co-pay, high deductible and often denies prescriptions once you're at the pharmacy. Most people with families use their spouses insurance, which is great... if your spouse works. Make sure you ask the status of this when you interview, it's supposed to be improving. No 401k or ability to set up one to auto deposit from your paycheck even. If there is a major holiday within your first ninety days you won't be paid which can be a big deal for say a Thanksgiving situation (Thurs+Fri). I don't know if the holidays and sick time are better or worse than elsewhere, my last role didn't have any. They are fairly flexible with time off but you do have to punch a time card every two weeks which was new to me. In my opinion the compensation was less than what the market will bear. They do offer incentives for hard work but not enough to close the gap that unfortunately the above items drive further away. Cruise the salary tab on here you'll get a picture of it. Don't sign anything before you read it 10x. There is the typical nepotism and favouritism one would expect at any company so no demerits there but an opportunity to improve.

Great Place to Work

Pros

Inductive Automation is growing rapidly in terms of both customer base and employees. It is nice that every employee stands behind the Ignition product (main software IA sells) and is genuinely excited about it. The company always looks at existing employees and their skills before they hire on new employees, there is a lot of room to grow with IA and they ensure their pay is competitive. Top Leadership is always present and very open to ideas and feedback. They are also very passionate about the company, the employees and the customers.

Cons

Our currently building is getting a little tight because of all the new hiring we are doing BUT we are moving to a new remodeled building in the beginning of 2018.
