Accruent Reviews

Pros

It's a really exciting time to be part of Accruent. They are growing extremely fast and recently there have been some tremendous new leaders and talent that have joined Accruent to ensure that this company continues to grow. The pace can prove to be an extremely fast pace but as someone who likes to stay busy and challenged, I really like that about Accruent. For my department, there have been tremendous strides in the past year because of the vision of our new leader and we have become a much more dynamic department than in years past. I also feel as if my manager will go to bat for me in tough situations and that they have my back, which is always a good thing. Also, the open PTO is a very real thing, and I have not ever had any problems with taking time off. The thing that is the best part of Accruent is definitely the peers and coworkers. Accruent really fosters a very family-like environment for being a bigger company, and I have made several friends during my time here. I have been able to see my career grow at Accruent and have been provided opportunities that I would not receive anywhere else.

Pros

We have something special going on here in this office and it starts with our onsite leader. He brings a certain energy to the office and does a great job of creating an environment where I can be successful. I've been here almost a year, I've worked for corporate giants, and working at Accruent, they show you that they care about who you are as a person and your growth as an individual. If you want to work at a company that is stale or middle of the road, Accruent isn't the place for you. If you want to work for a company that champions their people, Accruent is the place for you.

Pros

I've been at Accruent in New Orleans less than a year and it has been exciting, challenging, rewarding and surprisingly fun. There’s something special being created at this location with a wonderful group of hard working people. If you’re looking for a great place to grow and learn this is the place for you. If you’re looking for a company that not only cares about its goals and business but also its employees, this is the place for you. If you’re looking for a 9-5 boring work day this is not the place for you. Accruent is a company that recognizes its employees and strives for communication and transparency among the multiple worldwide locations. There seems to be lots of opportunities to move up and around within the company and it is not unheard of to move quickly. The focus on company culture really shows through the people that make up this community. Not only do they strive for excellence and results, but also work together with a sense of humility and care that creates a real team rather than just a group.

Advice to Management

Keep up the communication and positive energy!

Pros

Family-like feel
Snacks, drinks, etc. - good office setup
Great benefits & PTO
Investment in personal & professional development

Advice to Management

My experience is only from a branch / acquisition office, not representative of the HQ office location.

Be thoughtful in how you handle acquisitions, especially of already-established companies. Not every company is alike, thus not every acquisition should look the same. By slicing and dicing companies apart before even understanding how they function and what is essential to the company's functions, take the time to understand each department and already-existing personnel.

Also, invest in your non-HQ locations and branches. Throwing free food at us every so often doesn't really do much for morale when you've fired our essential peers and we're now picking up their duties.

Pros

You can gain good experience in positions you would normally not be able to get without prior experience

Advice to Management

Have a healthy mix of employee satisfaction through compensation and benefits to company profitability to investorsn

Pros

The company works very hard to establish a good culture and keep people engaged. There are tons of growth opportunities and people can move between departments if they have that desire. You don't feel like you are stuck in one position until you leave. It is an established company but feels start up in nature and a fun environment.

Advice to Management

Don't let Fortive mess up a good thing by changing too many things that make the company great. If you start to make it feel like a corporate environment you are going to lose that.

Pros

They a generally good for those looking for career changes, or willing to accept under-paying salaries for an opportunity to get a start in a field. They do have some good in-office perks, comfortable unlimited PTO, flexible schedule, standard package for health/retirement.

Pros

A shared mission and vision drives the work at Accruent, and a very nice culture informs the path to achieving those goals. Co-workers are generally very smart, driven, and collaborative. The office is wonderful, though huge, and provides an open environment which doesn't feel claustrophobic or intrusive (though, people who hate open offices will still find that it isn't ideal for privacy or the need for solitude).
