Pros

Great legacy product (Pro/E aka Creo), that has a diverse customer base. Relatively small/midsize company that is ambitious, and thinks and acts like a bigger company. Not too many free loaders. With regular layoffs, most employees are conscious about delivering value.

Cons

They have big ambitions, but they haven't really "popped" except for a brief period in the early 90s. Easily distracted. High margin focus, don't have grit or discipline to grind it out with mature products. Perpetual state of layoffs/RIFs.

Pros

Great people, customers, products. The culture has improved significantly over the past 5 years or so, and now feels like a relatively modern software company. Exec leadership is very good, Neil is fantastic.

Cons

Mid-level exec leaders, VP level, are still very political. Salaries are way below average.
