Pros

Pay is great......... Parking is available..... Free gym on site. That's it.

Cons

People here don't directly communicate. They skirt around issues and have some major egos (this could have just been my department). I remember within my first few weeks, I saw an individual contributor vent to a director about one of the director's direct reports and the director joined in on the attack, and yet when the director talked to the direct report, she acted like it wasn't a big deal and it was just a minor slip-up (and why these people wouldn't close their doors for this is beyond me). I realized after that and after meeting with more people that they don't really care about the product (on the business side) and their "niceness" is actually passive-aggressive. The CEO likes to call out other companies/business leaders negatively during meetings which I think is unnecessary.

Pros

- Potential to reclaim it's glory if someone takes back control

Cons

- Pay is not competitive - Losing to open source competitors and to the mega vendors. We are losing market leadership, fast. - Was once a family, but now sale teams are stressed and not making money. - High turnover - Many once-successful people have left. Many of us are planning to leave if not fixed NOW. - Lots of politics and in-fighting - The board appears to run this company, but it's clear they have no clue what our issues are.

Pros

Nothing comes to mind... Some of the people I worked with were nice but it seemed everyone really just tried to cover for themselves. The pay was decent but nothing special for the area.

Cons

After nearly 18 months on the job, I still hadn't received a single employee assessment. Most feedback was in the form of criticism about what I had failed to do, which usually, I was not aware of. The training I received when joining the company was spotty and insufficient. Generally, lack of training was the source of many of my issues. Growth opportunities were zilch.
