Pros

None. Absolutley not a single thing I can think of.

Cons

Very little onboarding. No new hire training or enablement except for a few computer based courses. No sales kick-off event or annual event. Close to zero communication from the New York HQ - no calls, presentations, webex's about how the company is doing or product roadmap information. Absolutely bizarre, like nothing I've ever encountered. Expenses take months to get paid and are a constant drain on time and morale to get approved. Products get launched by the CEO with no warning to anybody, at least not in the UK. A major product was launched in May 2017, yet still (as at November 2017 ) no one in the UK has seen the product or had access to a demo. The sales strategy seems to be defined by the Delivery team. Maybe this is why the UK sold virtually nothing in more than 12 months? Everything about the model screams services company rather than a software company. Very little interest in working with or enabling partners. Zero interest in making the product easy to buy or the company easy to do business with. I couldn't find a single person who had the first idea about what is required to grow an enterprise software company. All I heard was "we're creating a new way". Great, good luck with that.

Pros

They used to have monthly happy hours and events to keep people happy

Cons

Salary is low, expectations are high. Most engineering was moved off shore when the AI did not do well. Funding seemed to have been cut and events have been cut as well
