Pros

Since joining the project and support team, I've had the opportunity to learn tools and practices across many areas of our industry through the comprehensive software portfolio. Due to the flexible team structure, I was then able to specialize in my area of interest rather than being stuck to one area. Learning new skills and getting to show them off for sales and marketing often feels more like play than work. The work culture in our office is great. The open structure allows us to help each other out and provide support to the sales and development teams who are very appreciative.

Cons

For a while after the merger it felt like decisions weren't being communicated or made in a timely manner. Rather than hiring workers and accomplishing what we all wanted, we just saw more upper management being hired. At this point it seems like the management team is established and vision is being laid out. It feels like we've gotten around a corner and optimism is growing again. Travel has been both a pro and a con. On the support and project team I have traveled 1-2 times per month. Building up mileage, status, and new experiences are great, but at the end of the day time with family is the biggest priority for me.

Pros

The entire Innovyze team in the UK, US, and APAC is fantastic, with extensive experience in all aspects of water, sewer, stormwater, and river modeling (as a group!). I am always impressed with the care, knowledge, and assistance they provide to our customers at all hours of the day and week. I can easily name over 200 very talented and dedicated engineers, sales, management, and programmers for our many products. We've also recently added a slew of talented newcomers with Cloud and AI software experience, as well as previous management and programming experience. By transferring knowledge from our new C-Level leaders and Marketing Team, we successfully transformed the company from four separate companies into one. We already had a fantastic R&D team, support staff, and sales and sales enablement teams, and it's been fascinating to see how everything has changed and evolved over the last five years. Growth and change accelerated in 2021, and the water industry's plans for 2021 and beyond are very exciting and wonderful. Our growth in wonderful software will accelerate in 2021 as a result of our recent acquisition by Autodesk Inc. I believe that, for the benefit of our customers, we combine new and old programming ideas in a common culture. We do sell software that has been developed, supported, and taught for over four decades, but our new structure allows us to combine the best of the past and the best of current development threads. Our Support Experts provide Intelligent, Ingenious, and Insightful assistance to our customers. One of the best features of Innovyze software is the help you get from our global support team in running the fantastic Innovyze software. This significance is reflected in Innovyze's corporate structure. Innovyze has benefited from the general new C-Level structure and Creative C-Level hires in recent years. I'm particularly excited about Info360.com's Full Product Plan (FPP), which combines our SSF, Water, and Asset Management software. A previous Glassdoor reviewer of Innovyze stated that the company's "new technology for smart utility management (cloud platform) is exciting - going beyond the company's historical modeling/designing focus." It's fantastic to be a part of such a forward-thinking organization!” Historically, we were referred to as modelers or modelers (depending on which side of the world you work in). I'm more excited about the Cloud for models (Water and SSF especially as well as Asset Management to help modelers). In my opinion, we will always be a modeling agency. It is the foundation of Innovyze and what sets us apart. Moving to the Cloud, on the other hand, will improve our software even further.

Cons

Is there anything negative about working at Innovyze An Autodesk Company? Life isn't perfect, but if you work at Innovyze, you'll be working for one of the world's best engineering software companies, alongside some of the best modelers and software developers. In software, you will be doing important but difficult work. Working outside of normal business hours has long been a tradition at Innovyze; after all, water is important here. "The transition from an engineering software company to an enterprise-level technology company has been difficult - expectations and workload have increased," one previous reviewer said.
