Pros

Some interesting benefits Nice and roomy office Pool table ready to use (as long as you don't do it often)

Cons

Old technology and not planning to change Poor management decisions preventing the comapny to grow Violates most of the fundamental Agile principles giving you the notion obsolete methodologies are being used Meaningless promotions that lead to incompetent people managing more capable and skilled people Poor communication between teams where you never know who to trust and who can actually help you You are not protected by anyone and you can easily be fired without having the possibility to defend yourself Plenty of unqualified people not giving you a chance to learn from anyone Everything is made to meet short term needs, this goes from promises to decisions

Pros

The company was fantastic when I first started working there, the culture was embracing and supportive. Folks seem to care about your development at first and your growth.

Cons

After 3ds bought the company it started going downhill gradually, many c suite turnover, terminations and new latest CEO is clueless when it comes to executing the vision, while also making sure they continue delivering on NEXT all on all these features when at launch half of them don’t even work properly. Having spent years at the company I saw clients lose trust on the products and leadership, a lot of times CEO’s from client side would give advice on senior management on processes which being the vendor we should be the leaders on guidance not the other way around. Consider applying to other SaaS companies.
