Pros

There are a lot of really good people. The good people are the best part of the company.

Cons

Attrition: People are treated poorly for leaving and rarely leave on good terms because management is angry. Diversity: Having a DE&I program along with a statement on its website does not make BlueConic a diverse place. It makes it politically correct; there is a huge difference between being politically correct and making your company a welcoming and inclusive place to work. BlueConic has a lot of work to do to make minorities feel comfortable working there. Coaching: Feedback is rare and career development is even rarer. Management: Some managers are experienced and well-intentioned, but many are barely able to understand the product let alone how staff do their jobs; this significantly diminishes management's ability to be effective. Culture: Working at BlueConic feels like a trip back through high school where the “Plastics” from “Mean Girls” are in charge; the way “Regina George” treats the staff she dislikes is hard to watch. She openly shares that she “struggles with empathy”, which is a terrible sentiment for a leader to have. This is the real essence of the company. Run away as fast as you can. If you do decide to pursue a role, keep your expectations low.

Pros

- Generally good benefits (good insurance, PTO, etc) - People are generally really knowledgeable

Cons

- The product used to be cutting edge, but now hardly competes with newer competitors. There were some poor decisions made on the product roadmap years ago that will be difficult to overcome. The only thing keeping the company afloat is some big logos they landed years ago. - Leadership makes decisions in a vacuum. Leadership unilaterally revokes access to tools which are required to do your job. An example, they got rid of excel which is a requirement to use the Jebbit software they acquired in 2024 without talking to anyone. - Multiple rounds of layoffs. BlueConic is owned by Vista and only cares about turning the company for a profit. I would not recommend working here unless you literally have no other option. Even then, I would keep your resume up to date. - Because of the lack of growth, many competent employees are rightfully fleeing. They are left with several overachievers, but mostly employees who would struggle to get paid what they make at BlueConic for the amount of work that they do. It's not the place to be if you want to be surrounded by excellence.
