Pros

The Internet of Things is HOT!

Cons

This company has a change every day ! They are in complete panic mode! I am worried because the top level management is all taking the buy-out! Leaving us with no leadership. The leaders in place are not qualified. I made the company downsize, but time to look for a new job. I saw some job posting on here and thought you should be warned.

Pros

Unlimited vacation hours are not tracked...take all that you want!. Country club environment. Zero consequences for actions. If you currently work for the state or government, you will fit right in!

Cons

Absolutely no discipline. Complete lack of decision making delegation, hence, nothing gets done. Endless meetings to discuss the same subjects without any decisions. The company spends money like they have a printing press in the back room. Sales has not grown for years, resulting in annual WW RIFs in the 10% range. Annual voluntary turnover is 15-20%

Pros

Some genuinely nice and capable people Great benefits and time off Some great managers, though they struggle to make a difference Seem to be more open to the idea working remote post pandemic

Cons

Please note that is a particularly difficult environment for women. You will be fighting the current every step of the way. Behaviour that would get someone shown the door at any other company is not only ok but rewarded. Zero accountability for toxic people. No real standards for career advancement or measuring performance. Overall culture of silo building and hiding information. The root cause: Upper management as a whole is incredibly weak. PTC makes the classic mistake of equating loud personalities with leadership skills. Cronyism is also a huge issue – so these individuals select people like themselves for advancement and perpetuate the culture. Many of them do not have the core skills for the job yet somehow have no problem speaking down to everyone around them. There are some amazing individual contributors and managers here but as they say “one bad apple spoils the bunch”. It’s way more than one at this point.
