AspenTech Employee Reviews about "good benefits"

Pros

Very good colleagues that will support you.

Cons

The benefits are not good at all. Things take years to change.

Pros

- Flexible schedules and time off for vacation - Medical benefits are good - A few talented employees who can get the job done

Cons

- No growth opportunities for career advancement - Lack of management leadership and vision - Top-down management style is oppressive - Too many layers of management - Failure to communicate among departments - Employee morale is way down due to job security issues, lousy management practices and very limited growth opportunities

Pros

You will get a lot of experience in the software business. Health benefits are very good. Co-workers are very friendly.

Cons

-Salary and raises are a joke compared to the amount of work they expect you to do. - Management turns a blind eye to problems & expect you to deal with it. -Untrained, unexperienced and disrespectful people are put in higher level positions, driving a whole department out of the company. -If there is a snow storm, do not expect your manager to let you work from home; instead they'll say: "Take your time getting here or use a vacation day".

Pros

AspenTech has really good benefits and they seem to get progressively better year over year.

Cons

Your job can really suck depending on your manager. It's hard to understand how some of these managers earned their positions and have managed to stay here. But I guess when you have everyone else doing the work you take credit for it's pretty easy.

Pros

Aspen has some very good benefits, that have been left over from when they were first started. The salary is good and the benfits, especially the healthcare are good. Overall, the people that work there, especially in services, are nice and good to work with.

Cons

Since Mark Fusco has taken over, there is definitely a very strong focus on financial performance. Granted, strong financials are strong for any company, especially a company like Aspen that almost went under, but it seems to be taking away from the quality of the products and services, as well as the focus on people. Aspen also seems to have an ivory tower mentality in terms of product development. The development organization is very inwardly focused and seems to look down on the customers and other parts of the comany. Lastly, the company does not seem to really focus or care about employeed development or training. They offer elearning, but anything beyond that is near impossible to do.

Pros

:Overall great work life balance Open minded, collaborative atmosphere that strikes a good balance between team work and working autonomously Very intelligent, experienced leaders who develop their teams Office politics are much calmer and easier to navigate compared to other companies Some flexibility around commuting hours

Cons

Not very tolerant with remote working, though supervisors in the department are fairly flexible with this if there is a specific need on occasion (i.e. medical appointment, bad weather). Benefits are good, but not as great as what you'll find at a Fortune 100 company.

Pros

-good health benefits -good PTO -

Cons

-bad management -managers don`t know what's happening with employers

Pros

Good colleagues, good location, free parking. Good benefits package - which is very surprising. (Don't get sick or hurt though - company will penalize for that)

Cons

No room for advancement, very poor morale, upper management never interacts with anyone lower than vp level. When things go wrong lots of finger pointing and no recognition for successes. Threats and fear are used to motivate.

Pros

Lovely friendly people work there. People are always happy to help Pay levels are reasonable for industry Benefits are good

Cons

Controlling environment No freedom to be a manager and make reasonable decisions Culture of fear Constant reorganisation No desire to listen to the views of employees.

Pros

stable and benefits are good

Cons

flexibility is not considered and growth is slow
