Pros

The company ethos appears to be based on flexibility, inclusiveness and respect. Hard work reaps rewards, advancement and the ability to change or fix things. There are a lot of very clever people to interact with and learn from. All that and a great pension scheme, a good salary and a friendly atmosphere; not to mention food brought in from around the world!

Cons

All companies have cons, but here there is the opportunity to turn these into pros with a little work, communication and ingenuity. Compared to other companies I have worked for, the cons fade into insignificance.

Pros

A leading, privately-held provider of materials data management solutions with established, blue-chip customers in aerospace and defense, automotive, high-tech, and other discrete manufacturing industries. Plus partnerships with the major PLM and simulation solution providers. Semi-annual customer consortia that provide input and prioritization on new product development. If you like to travel to Europe, the company is based in Cambridge, UK and you will have opportunities to travel abroad for company meetings. Very flexible travel policy

Cons

Management needs to be more open to considering and implementing constructive feedback from the field. Complex compensation plan Although it is privately held, most employees are granted a very small amount of stock options.
