Pros

Proir to Aug '16 - Fountain Drinks - Coffee - Great social events - Managers - Coworkers Work environment was great. Got things done. Sure there were last minute changes/addins of code, but the is part of a software company Post Aug '16 - If you enjoy watching all your friends get the boot - If you enjoy the new CEO walking the halls making sure you are working - Sound of Crickets

Cons

The "NEW" execs, AKKR, rolled in, laid-off alot of people for nothing more then the financial bottom line. For the ones that made it through the firing squad, little by little we are finding other employment and leaving on our own. No one wants to work for people that all they do is flip companies for money. They talk that the client is first, and we will listen, and the standard open door policy. NOT, they are just looking to flip the company, nothing more, nothing less. They have laid off so many people, and their shop in Bolivia is not up to speed yet, and people are leaving on their own, they now have the "wide eye" look. So what do they do, they post open positions on the Careers site to try to hire people that were just let go!!.. And to pay them peanuts!! Good Luck!

Pros

Great pay, great teammates, challenging work as well. Learning development is okay as well. Diversity of clients is a plus as well.

Cons

Management Benefits Constant layoffs I would not recommend anyone to work their. Upper level management is awful. CEO is awful and doesn't connect well with other employees.

While it’s not true that “over 60 percent of employees were laid off,” we did make changes to better align our workforce with the needs of our customers. We agree that this is a challenging and rewarding environment, with engaged and committed employees. We’re excited about what the future holds for SciQuest.

Pros

Good salary, free soda and coffee, decent benefits package, smart co-workers.

Cons

Too many to list. The culture and morale of this decades-old company at absolute rock bottom and worst I've ever encountered. The recent 2016 acquisition left this place reeling. Negative Glassdoor reviews are spot on. I've never witnessed corporate blight at this scale post 2008. Droves of empty cubes and long faces. Perpetual atmosphere of aggression, sadness, despair. Go elsewhere if you are a career coder, developer, or engineer. Company is scrambling to integrate products that might be older than some of you in the workforce. Tremendous knowledge gaps left by previous workforce. Total react. Steep learning curve to an endlessly complex convoluted infrastructure. Stodgy aloof veterans guard the gates and hold the keys. Zero work-life balance. Remaining workforce trimmed next-to-nothing. Remaining crew expected to be available on call online 24/7/365. Work from home policy being taken away. Atrocious management of resources. Non-existent processes. HR won't save you. Get everything in writing. Bottom line: Bought and sold good ol' boy club. Plenty of fancy BMW's lined up outside, big egos inside. I wouldn't recommend this company to my worst enemy. Stay far, far away.
