Like a prison!

Pros

If you like feeling like a prisoner while at work, this is your place. Management checks cubes and fob times to see when people are coming and leaving. Don't leave your area or you might not get checked off during guard counts. If you don't really enjoy making friends, this is your place! No need to make friends here, as they could vanish any day!

Cons

Not entirely sure where to start. This place is a hot, hot mess. I've worked for some awful companies, but this one takes the cake. New management is a bunch of cocky, arrogant scumbags. They're letting people go right and left with no real plan in mind. New CMO is super sleazy & micromanaging. The few left in each department are being run ragged because they're left to fill the void of everyone that has been let go. It's only a matter of time before everyone is gone.

We hope that when people see the new leadership team walking around the office, they take the opportunity to say hello and share any ideas they have for how to make SciQuest a better place for employees and customers. That is job #1 for all of us.

Pros

None since being acquired by AKKR

Cons

After being acquired by AKKR, there have been well over 240 people "let go" since mid to end of Sept this year including the entire executive team. AKKR is a horrible company who gobbles up smaller companies, lays off a bunch of people to "bare bones" employees and then sells off each module/area piece to piece. They do not care about the amount of work or effort that was put in by SciQuest employees and its a total shame b/c i really liked working at SciQuest. I would NEVER work for a company acquired by AKKR and unfortunately SciQuest is one of them. I left on my own after SciQuest was acquired as i saw the writing on the wall.

I’m sorry to hear that you have decided to end your relationship with SciQuest, just as we are beginning our most successful chapter. Exciting things are happening here, and it’s because of the work of our exceptional teams. There are several inaccuracies in your note, however, that need to be addressed. Your assumption regarding the number of individuals who are no longer at SciQuest is radically overstated. Additionally, AKKR has never broken up and sold “modules.” They are known and respected for developing successful, industry-leading companies. SciQuest is one of those companies, and we are collectively building something great.

We appreciate your commitment to SciQuest and our customers. We recognize that we will need a dedicated, talented and hard-working team to take the company forward. We are eager to build that team and recognize that much of the talent we need already exists here at SciQuest.
