Pros

Great Product! People are great to work with. Pay is fair and opportunities to advance are good.

Cons

Executive management including CEO do not know what they are doing. Constant change trying to figure out what will work. Strategy of the quarter mentality.

Pros

Great place to work.. competitive pay..When you are hitting your number you can do really well... They "feed the eagles and starve the turkeys"

Cons

No stock options..Execs are more concerned about selling out and striking rich than long term company status.. lots of change in executive leadership.

Pros

The company made efforts over the past couple years to bring on more experienced salespeople. As a result, some of the sales team members have legitimate experience selling SaaS solutions to enterprise clients. Aside from that, its a bloated, bureaucratic organizational with mediocre leadership, very limited experience building and maintaining a technology platform, and a sophomoric work climate. Strong Utah County culture, if you know what I mean. Pay is decent because of a competitive labor market, but pay for a position varies from person to person based on no known factors.

Cons

Fragile technology that breaks in unexpected ways with even minor software releases. No product roadmap for internal groups or clients. No vision from leadership. Attitude toward the workforce is people are a commodity. Attitude toward clients is they're a source of revenue. Mediocrity pervades the corporate culture. No best practices or standards employed in work areas. Silos divide key groups like customer support, sales, product management, engineering, professional services, etc. Pervasive low morale. Company does not make use of its own platform for much of the work done. Parts of the platform have languished without attention, e.g., agile, resource management, billing, etc. Inward focus rather than client focus. Recent rebrand to Workfront is a distraction and pure lipstick play, nothing substantial to it.
