Pros

Good salary and benefits but not worth the stress of the job

Cons

I worked as an ERP Business Analyst for a year at Altium and it was one of my worst working experiences. I can admit that I was inexperienced in some areas however it was difficult to learn due to poor leadership and lack of resources (purposely put in place by my director) . I was expected to not only lead projects but also lead as ERP Support which was misrepresented during the interview process. My director would gatekeep resources not only from the business but within our team which made it difficult to begin with. Definitely a situation where the favorites on my team had the privilege of not addressing their open item issues directly with other departments while myself and other employees (mostly black) were expected to own issues that we had no knowledge of. To make things worst , it was discouraged to ask our team members for help. Eventually I burned out and instead of addressing my performance professionally my director encouraged the entire office to bully and harass me to get me to quit. I documented everything and went to HR and of course they did not recognize my grievances as a hostile work environment. I was fired a month after making my HR complaint for something that was not addressed until AFTER I made a formal complaint. I suffered from major depression and anxiety mainly due to being overworked with limited resources and constantly dealing with intimidation from my boss on a daily basis. Leadership clearly encourages office bullying and intimidation and will gatekeep resources to ultimately sabotage your efforts. I can 100% take accountability for any of the faults of my own, this was a learning curve for me however the culture of this company is very toxic and I was truly set up to fail , especially after I started to voice my concerns about unfair treatment. I was made to feel incompetent when I had questions. I felt like I was treated like a disposable diversity hire where I was constantly mislead, scapegoated and over worked.

Pros

I have been at Altium Packaging now for almost four years working here in our corporate office in Atlanta, GA. I can genuinely say that I love working here and appreciate all of the people that I get to work with every day. Everyone is willing to step in and help and very fortunate to work with such great leaders.

Cons

The return to the office policy is a little strict but having a manager that is flexible and willing to work with me has made that much easier.

Pros

Strong growth and opportunities to develop and implement improvements. Excellent exposure across all branches of the organization and access to key resources. The team is highly supportive, with everyone committed to doing their best.

Cons

Frequent leadership changes and a disconnect between senior leadership’s mission/vision and what is experienced on the floor. Results are often driven by individual effort rather than standardized, repeatable processes, creating risk when key contributors leave. Accountability response is slow, and operating as a “company of companies” continues to present challenges.
