      Enterprise email governance software king

      Software development engineer in test
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      MessageGate has an enterprise-level email governance solution that is robust and proven. The company itself has a solid foundation after spinning out of Boeing in the early 2000s. They employ intelligent developers who are driven and excel at their jobs

      Cons

      There has been a lot of turnover in upper management. This creates instability and doubt in the minds of the employees. While this is not ideal, maintaining better transparency could help admonish fears.

      I enjoyed it but it was too short and not sure they'll survive!

      Senior software engineer (contractor)
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Excellent development environment & good use of version control, etc. Better than any other organization I've worked at. There were very supportive testers (necessary because of the complexity of the product). They also used Scrum, which was my first experience with it and which I found very pleasant as a development methodology. And they used Bugzilla, which was very pleasant to use for me as a developer. I was generally very impressed with the technical people I worked with there.

      Cons

      Poor sales & shifting market strategy make company survival look chancy. They seemed at the time to have tried various different things in the marketplace, to insignificant market effect. They've downsized significantly since I left. Also, at the time I was there they had an old office formerly used as a bank, with many private offices ... but some of the offices were just holding *computers* while some developers were stuck in *cubicles*.
