Pros

This company has the potential to be a leader in a fast growing market. AI applied to maintenance strategies for vehicles, windmills and beyond has a lot of legs

Cons

The market this company plays in is pretty antiquated, it is going to be a heavy lift to get these old school companies to modernize

Serious Lack of Diversity and it's clear they don't care about it

Pros

Good and innovative product for large fleets

Cons

I'm not happy about the lack of diversity that this company has. Not only does this company have no diversity initiatives, they also have zero diversity. All one has to do is look at the LinkedIn profiles of the sales team and it's easy to see there is none. Stay away if you don't fall into the norm. I left because of it.
