Pros

The three pillars that the company has been build on are Accountability, Rationality, and Collegiality. These core values are introduced to you the moment you interact with any Guidewire employee. You are given a rare opportunity at Guidwire, you are trusted, treated like adults, and given the tools to be successful. If you don't feel this way, you CAN talk to the management team, and they will ensure that the appropriate modifications are made to ensure your success. You can never tell what life will bring you, but I truly believe that I am in this for the long haul. Go Guidewire!

Cons

Sometimes the excitement from all of the learning and growing opportunities, lead you to work longer then usual hours. This can be beneficial form the accomplishments, but sometimes detrimental from the amount of time it inadvertently take away from your personal time.

Pros

NA, can't think of anything positive anymore. It's a micromanaging mess.

Cons

Guidewire makes majors shift every 2 years and the last one to take PgM out of PD into its own department is a micromanaging nightmare. We have more status meetings and spreadsheets to update than time to do any work anymore. 3 places to update if I want to take PTO. 7am and 7pm meetings are now the norm. 6 bosses in 10 years, no one can make up their mind on the direction of the company, projects start and are abandoned constantly.
