Business Outlook

Pros

Ever changing environment with amazing people. Culture diversity is amazing in the company. Amazing products. Loyal employees. Fast paced dynamic company which continues to expand internationally. People are always looking to do right by the company.

Cons

Company is closely controlled. There is a huge class system between upper management and the rest and it is clearly evident. Lack of investment in its people and it nor longer values its loyal employees.

Business Outlook

Pros

Solid client portfolio, and good BI technology. Mobile technology is top tier and robust enough to be able to handle almost any business case that comes along. Cloud services are going to be well served by the newly formed relationship with AWS (Amazon). A strong cash position is the financial foundation of the company.

Cons

The company is in transition and with that, brings uncertainty for the employees. Many key executive positions are being eliminated or re-defined and the trickle down is in full swing. For too long Executive leadership has been disjoint, fractured and off the mark. Their plan to "fix" this is to bring in all new leadership in Sales, Services, Marketing and HR. The focus on non-core business (BI) has created uneasiness and uncertainty with customers. Prospects no longer believe the company is committed to BI and are looking elsewhere for options. This is having an impact on the company's financial performance. Efforts to cultivate, development and enable a viable Partner channel to drive license sales and increase revenue has been unproductive and continues to struggle.
