      Pros

      Friendly coworkers, good commuting location.

      Cons

      Information Builders provides almost no training from experts coming to our location or by attending outside classes. In over five years at the company I received only one professional training session, and the room was overcrowded with employees and the course length was cut by 1/3 over the instructor's recommendation, resulting in an extremely poor experience. Many colleagues have not received a raise in over a decade, without explanation. This year -- no performance appraisals. Another excuse not to give raises. Promotions? The company is shrinking in headcount, few opportunities to advance.

      Pros

      Privately owned and people who have worked there for years are very proud to still be there

      Cons

      Older company process and you feel you are in a time capsule

      Where good careers go to die

      Pros

      Credible work experience with an analyst ranked Enterprise Software company

      Cons

      This is a place where good careers go to die. Managers are absolutely terrible. The management philosophy is extremely arcane and reminiscent of the glory days of siebel systems or CA. Nano management, heavy handed tactics, constant threats of firing and justification of your employment. Sales tactics are also extremely outdated and ineffective. Some decent folks in the rank in file but overall just a miserable place to work. And as a policy there are no raises and promotions are extremely hard to come by as the company is usually downsizing every 2 - 3 years and the typical promotion cycle is about 4-5 years. Thus, unless you plan on being a lifer whatever you get on the way in is all you're ever going to get. Get your resume cred and get out because you will hate everyday you work here.
