Pros

Generally interesting work on a cool product. SaaS division is full of nice, smart, talented people. Good benefits. Relaxed, professional environment largely free of undue pressure, micromanagement, etc. Good work-life balance and ample time off. Did the right thing during the early stages of the pandemic by going fully remote and requiring vaccination.

Cons

C-suite and board are about as un-diverse as they can get. Increased restrictions on WFH in the last year. CEO's total compensation was $13M (119x the median employee) in 2021 and $47M in 2020, not helping the problem of income inequality. Seaport office is by design too small, in a productivity-hampering open plan.

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.
