Vantaggi

- Good PTO policies - Flexible Schedule (Depends on the group) - Interesting Work

Svantaggi

- There seems to be a lack of vision for the organic growth of the products acquired. They tend to languish over a period of time and die on the vine. - It's very top-down. Worker bees are first to go In one group there are at least 2 managers to every worker. Very inefficient - No clear ideas on how to innovate. I lay this at the feat of the CEO who probably understands everything about how to run a traditional business and nothing about how to make a software company sustainable and successful. - Acquisitions seem to be for IP and also for hiding systemic financial problems. It is very odd timing indeed that the company acquires a new company either right before financials are released or right after. The stock seems to languish mid-quarter and then is boosted again via a well timed acquisition. - Every new hire has to be approved by the CEO. Riddiculous. - Compensation lags - The benefits are horrible here on the west coast. If you like not being able to see a real doctor then this is the place for you

Vantaggi

The company offers excellent training and a thorough onboarding process, helping new hires feel well-prepared and confident. The small, close-knit teams foster a collaborative and supportive work environment where you never feel lost in the crowd. Employees take pride in the innovative technology and software being developed, which is recognized as impactful within the industry. (Note: The company was acquired by Microsoft to bring potential for future growth.)

Svantaggi

While the company excels in many areas, there’s limited upward mobility, especially in certain career paths, which can be frustrating for those seeking advancement. Additionally, feedback from employees often feels like it’s not taken seriously, which can lead to disengagement when trying to influence change or improve processes.
