Actuate Employee Reviews about "good people"

Pros

Nice office in San Mateo, good people, no perks (bowling randomly), sales kick off was a good time.

Cons

Very little possibility to get promoted or work your way up. Even if you Inside Sales is not set up for success.

Pros

Salary was about avg for industry. Benefits avg. Technology was good. Really believed in solution for first few years. Met some good people.

Cons

Departments don't work well together. Management staff for most part is weak. Too many long term employees are moved into mgmt and director positions with little mgmt experience . This has a direct effect on the company's ability to put any structure in place or attract...retain good people

Pros

Flexible work environment and good people to work with

Cons

Needs to listen more to field

Pros

Good pay and benefits. Good people to work with. Very flexible working environment.

Cons

Not much energy in the company. Some bad management decisions.

Pros

The products are good -- you can point to what you made and be proud. Also, there are lots of good people there. The company doesn't try to inflict an artificial culture on its people. If you are sick, they support you being out to get well. They seem to mostly keep the people they hire -- didn't seem to be much turnover.

Cons

Hard to get requirements or functional specs on product development., even when your job needs access to them -- didn't seem like they exist Embracing agile dev seemed to be just an excuse to fly by the seat of the pants... or maybe they had a plan (including specs & requirements?) and no longer felt like they needed to communicate it to other employees. Increasingly the main innovation was in China, not the U.S., which added to the communication issue. Sometimes odd politics led to surprising promotions or credit being given to the wrong people.
