Corel – “Great place with an old product line”

Pros

Good group of highly skilled people that enjoy their work and their products. Decent perks, work flexibility, and consistent perfromance recognition throughout.

Cons

Recent history of investor purchase, delisting, relisting, delisting again. Very tight ship with little room or budget for innovation. Culture of "me too" products. High executive aversion to risk.

Advice to Senior Management

Need to foster more innovation at a low level. Create more turnover in the employees to bring in fresh experiences and skills.
