Parametric Technology – “Good workplace for those who can handle the lifestyle”
Pros
The people are by far the best reason to work at PTC, where it is easy to build a strong team and coworkers work well together. It is an exciting and dynamic workplace for Global Services professionals.
Cons
The work-life balance for GS professionals can make the job difficult. The job requires employees to spend the majority of the week on travel to remote job sites.
Advice to Senior Management
The company has had inconsistent priorities over the last 5-10 years, with executive management appearing not to fully understand nor successfully plan our business. Instead it has felt as if they are often reacting to unexpected situations as they happen, resulting in confusion and lack of confidence from employees (and often losing key employees because of this). It seems to be getting better, with a more proactive, rather than reactive, approach to our strategy. While it is important to challenge the organization, it is also important to build the confidence of our investors and show that we are and will be the leader in our industry.
