    Great People, Cool Technology

    May 1, 2023 - Anonymous Employee in Boston, MA

    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    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, MA
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    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, MI
    Recommend
    CEO Approval
    Business Outlook

    Pros

    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”.

    Pros

    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.

    Pros

    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.

    Starter roles are underpaid, and changes happen frequently. Having said that, through career advancement there is a good opportunity to increase income significantly and the company managers to stay ahead of disruption.

Diversity and Inclusion
PTC India conducted its first session about sensitizing employees and respecting differently-abled individuals. Subha Pandian and Sunitha Vikram from Agua Women’s Leadership facilitated this session, and they spoke about various disabilities, overcoming microaggressions, using the right language and signs, and most importantly, hanging our mindsets. Three of our employees who identify as differently-abled, shared their experiences, making this event even more meaningful. We are particularly proud of Debanjan Bose, Grishma Oswal, and Sushma Rai who courageously, and for the first time, provided insights into their personal and professional milestones. Our PTC SMART Employee Resource Group does commendable work in this field; and for that, we are grateful.

The Healey-Driscoll Administration joined us at our HQ location in the Boston Seaport for the 2023 “Reimagining High School” STEM Summit. The event is centered on the work unfolding across the Commonwealth and guest speakers discussed the employer partnerships aimed at providing women, people of color, and underrepresented groups within STEM opportunities to learn and excel. Special thanks to Secretary of Education, Patrick Tutwiler, PhD and Lt. Governor of Massachusetts, Kim Driscoll for moderating. #MASTEMSummit
