Great People, Cool Technology
May 1, 2023 - Anonymous Employee in Boston, MARecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
PTC is a highly innovative place with super cool technology that helps customers make the world a better place for everyone. The people are super smart and helpful. The hybrid flexible work schedule means the best of both worlds - office some days and work from home on others!
Cons
Budgets can be tight, but in the end it's with a goal of being fiscally responsible, which is important.

Innovative Company, Supportive Leadership
May 2, 2023 - Manager in Boston, MARecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Innovative tech, opportunities to learn, supportive leadership, great benefits! There were several reasons behind my decision to join PTC, there are even more behind my motivation to stay. Located in one of the coolest areas in MA, the office space is beautiful and enabled by cutting-edge technology. That said, we also enjoy the option to work remotely, allowing for some serious flexibility and trusted autonomy. We're under the guidance of talented leaders, individuals who prioritize employee well-being and growth. Since having joined, I've had the opportunity to work on thought-provoking projects and cross-functional initiatives that carry extensive visibility. Recently, my manager encouraged me to pursue the Tuition Assistance program and I've enjoyed reimbursement benefits since having started my Master's program. The support has made my academic pursuits possible. Lastly, the company values aren't just discussed in theory. The environment is welcoming, celebratory, and as a member of the LGBTQ+ community, I feel I can conduct myself authentically. It's been a positive experience thus far and I'm looking forward to continuing my time with the organization.
Cons
The company has undergone significant change since I started in 2021. It can be difficult to stay apprised of certain developments.

PTC Review from a longtime Employee
May 9, 2023 - Senior Consultant in Detroit, MIRecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
It was awesome working with great colleagues. There are so many top notch people to work with, it’s the best part of working at the company.
Cons
It never felt like management was there for you. Systems and processes were in a constant state of change and you could never settle in to an environment. The constant joke was that PTC stood for “Prepare To Change”.

No vision for Data Science
May 22, 2023 - Senior Data Scientist Manager in Boston, MARecommendCEO ApprovalBusiness OutlookPros
Located in Seaport, its a nice place to work. Cross functional with lots of social networking events.
Cons
There is no vision for Data. The current architecture lacks data management, ownership, engineering, etc. Management doesn't care either. They are not data savvy. Compensation is low. No dynamism in the Management. People get let go for no reason and bad decision Feels like working for a government owned enterprise.

PTC has very real career advancement opportunities for people who are willing to work hard and stand out. The technology is interesting and generally the people are friendly.
