Was a great ride

Pros

Great corporate facility, lots of great people to work with. Over my tenure I have generally done well: travel, salary, roles.

Cons

Increasing lack of focus on corporate direction. High level theme is constant but path to achieve is ever changing: PTC = Prepare to change. Loss of confidence in senior management over time. Growth opportunities diminish in the medium to higher ranks.

Pros

Flexible, lots of home office, managers usually consider Project and Program Managers as owners of their team, such as a small business environment. Good company to progress fast, and good software editor to progress on all kind of technologies and processes related to the Manufacturing world. Good entrepreneurial spirit. Good wages. Good products, especially Windchill now.

Cons

Lots of work, too many managers (never seen so many VPs and related title in my life before), too much internal reporting and meetings. As a Program Manager, or PM, you are always in a situation where you have to justify yourself for whatever situation.

Pros

Knowledge focused company with in depth training programs. Good products that satisfy a lot of clients, but some engagements do have a lengthy cycle time. Great external image with a professionalism that impresses clients. Real experience gained for most employees.

Cons

Sometimes training can be too verbose. Lots of type-A personalities striving for recognition which can sometimes lead to unnecessary attrition of excellent talent. Performance is based on the stack ranking system which can be internally destructive. Work-life balance is sometimes a stretch. The normal political dodge-ball is present like in most other companies of it's size. Leadership is strong but sometimes not focused on growth, and sometimes leans toward the aggressive sale of products. Some products are being threaten by competitor products that have a shorter deploy cycle time and are more user-friendly.
