Manhattan Associates Reviews

Pros

Some of the people I worked with early on and who have since moved on were great to work with. Since then the company is in no mood to hire new people and those who are coming in are mostly incompetent, since no one wants to board a sinking ship.

Cons

1. No recognition
2. Very poor compensation
3. Indian management - Most managers in R&D and services are Indian, and when it comes to employee recognition and growth they have no clue what to do.
4. Long hours, work is adhoc, primitive technologies contrary to what they claim
5. Poor code base
6. Very reactive s/w development efforts, almost everyone is exclusively working on bugs. New work is limited in scope as a result.

Advice to Senior Management

1. A greater emphasis needs to be put into employee growth
2. Employee compensation should also increase, inflation is more than the annual increments
3. Benefits are poor
4. Remove incompetent managers

Pros

1. Mid-sized company, so you are not just an employee number
2. Room for growth at an early stage in your career
3. Good benefits and vacation plan
4. Get to travel while you are single and young
5. Meet many different people and learn many different things about many different industries

Cons

1. Travel can be too much at times
2. Job is technical at first, you need to like software
3. Job can be painstaking and boring at times
4. You can probably make more at other consulting companies
5. There is a ceiling when you reach the management level

Advice to Senior Management

The promotion process needs to change. The Principal position should be for technical personnel only. Consultants manage projects and thus should be titled manager. Need better professional and technical training internally. We shouldn't cancel training courses when clients don't show up. We should keep the training classes when internal resources signed up.

Pros

Great learning opportunity. Smart people.

Cons

Managars tend to micro manage at times

Lame product names

Advice to Senior Management

Please motivate employees by rewarding them financially and making their environment fun to work. It would be nice if incentives are provided such that employees can see the immediate benefit of accomplishing their goal rather than once a year. I personally feel most of the employees below the Manager level are over worked and less compensated.
