Pros

1. I learned a lesson to trust my judgment and run when my gut tells me. 2. Lots of free food if you want to get fat.

Cons

Surrounded by some of the rudest people I've ever had to deal with. Bad moral. I constantly heard how "nice" everyone working at PTC is. This phrase was repeated as if it were rehearsed and they were trying to convince you of it. Problems that keep workers from doing their jobs effectively are ignored, and I've witnessed employees who tried to address problems, get reprimanded for it...as if you are not even allowed to talk about it. Meanwhile, a seemingly constant flow of fattening food is made available to you as if it were supposed to make up for everything, and shut you up. I agree with the previous reviewer. It was like a cult. From the moment I walked through the door, there were so many red flags that I knew I would just be passing through, and the sooner the better.

This is more of a cult than a work place

Pros

The employees had a lot of relative PTC experience as they all come through their "PTC University".

Cons

The employees have no real world experience outside of PTC and so have no real view on how to adjust to various situations. Employees get promoted within and not for talent but longevity. It reminds me of a cult..
