Pros

Worked inside sales when it was owned by Compuware. Had a great culture, hiring was constant due to expansion, competitive products and decent salaries and commissions. Really enjoyed working there during this time.

Cons

Company went private and three weeks later, in Jan 2015, Thoma Bravo turned everything upside down and laid off a boatload of people, which prompted many others to leave over the next several months. They seem to have weathered the storm and company culture has changed, but they remain to have competitive products. Problem is that management keeps things close to the vest so uncertainty remains, as I understand it. Thoma Bravo layoff was insensitive and brutal. Not the way to treat and respect people as they head to the door.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, your insight is appreciated. Yes, we went private which usually brings about change. I feel we have definitely “weathered the storm” and a genuine effort is being put in from leadership, HR, and other groups to continuously improve our culture and foster open communication.

Pros

Decent Product Great Perks Co-Workers

Cons

A lot of what happens to your career is beyond your control. You can be a top performer and still only meet satisfied in remarks. The customer success departments went through some changes earlier this year and it left it splintered. A lot of toxic environments take place in pockets and everyone is cliqued up. I suppose you could say this is like every corporation, but this was junior varsity level office politics. If you made someone upset you could be next. Most of the executive leadership and brings in their buddies who have no idea how the product works and all of the veterans have left by now. It's mostly a game of grab behind and brown nosing.
