Poor management & nepotism at it’s best

Pros

Intacct team at the San Jose office is amazing, smart, innovative and a true Silicon Valley’s child. There’s still some good folks there but most have already been cut out of the picture.

Cons

Management is the worst I have ever seen. From the top down, this UK company will do what it takes to support their own legacy company while cutting off Intacct employees who work so hard to put Intacct on the map. Intacct was thriving until Sage bought it, then they drove it to the ground, layoff and relocate the headquarter to Atlanta. They bought out the competition and basically killed the team and product. They layoff the Intacct team in different stages/ timeline to avoid the mandatory Cal-WARN, which is the state version of the federal WARN Act, is triggered by 50 or more layoffs of covered employees within a rolling 30-day window. The 60-day notice requirement also applies when the business is terminating operations or relocating its operations 100 miles or more away.

Pros

Before Sage purchased Intacct, the company had a great company culture. We were focused on customer satisfaction first, and growing revenues next. It was a pleasant environment, and I made friends with many of my colleagues.

Cons

Then we got bought, and the new leadership was 100% focused on increasing market share. They were aggressive , deceitful, and unfriendly, and I think they started to put a lot of pressure onto Intacct's original leadership because my boss, who was always pretty rude as a person, got even worse. He started treating me with a lot of disrespect. He not only undervalued me, but was nasty to me and he ridiculed, humiliated, scared, and honestly traumatized me. HR also did not handle the situation very well when I went to them. They are only there to protect the company's best interests and not the employees. I would not recommend working here or even buying their software just because of the leadership. It's not a company you can trust and some of the leadership are old school slave drivers.

Pros

- Great culture - Good benefits

Cons

- Lack of support from the management team and everything is rebranded again so nothing was in line - No proper training except for a training program that is not fully built - It worst experience ever, was in my 2nd month of working here, finish training and everything based on guidelines suddenly was pulled into a teams call while doing my training and got terminated RIGHT AWAY without any heads-up, no guiding or verbal warning before, they blame it on my English communication skills which is something really ridiculous and if someone not passing that requirement on the first stage, they won't hiring them either - I think now it all makes sense why their probation time is 6 months and when I join the company, the whole team is new, and the most senior one in the role is 1 year of working experience. Besides great culture and benefits, I will recommend staying away from them if you don't want to waste your time like me and have work trauma like this when they just suddenly terminate you right on the spot just because you are not a native English speaker.
