Pros

The life work balance is great. Nice office space and very good non management employees. The company has great potential when it grows up.

Cons

Don't make mistake or will be fired, unless you're in R&D and write bad code. Way too many managers, and VPs just a waste of money since they are not technical nor know how to manage. To much back staving by managers to save themselves. No promotions unless you work in NYC office. The unlimited PTO might seem great unless you don't use it and then are fired because you will leave with ZERO money.

Pros

The company was fantastic when I first started working there, the culture was embracing and supportive. Folks seem to care about your development at first and your growth.

Cons

After 3ds bought the company it started going downhill gradually, many c suite turnover, terminations and new latest CEO is clueless when it comes to executing the vision, while also making sure they continue delivering on NEXT all on all these features when at launch half of them don’t even work properly. Having spent years at the company I saw clients lose trust on the products and leadership, a lot of times CEO’s from client side would give advice on senior management on processes which being the vendor we should be the leaders on guidance not the other way around. Consider applying to other SaaS companies.
