Pros

Appian has made a great effort to be a great place to work. Especially for younger engineers, this is a great place to learn and grow. At the same time, the company is committed to the personal growth of its employees. Also, if there are problems, management takes criticism seriously, investigates, and puts into action things that result in positive change.

Cons

As the company gets larger, it gets more process-heavy, and it's harder for senior people to know what's really happening on the ground. Appian has grown well, but it's still starting to have big company problems. The engineering department has become very junior heavy in the last few years.

Pros

Cool office & perks, unlimited PTO.

Cons

My manager ultimately stabbed me in the back. Being a recruiter here is a trap. No one has your back, your are just an order taker and every stakeholder has unrealistic and unfair expectations. The founders have their hand in the entire recruiting process and it makes it so unbelievably hard. They want top talent but have not top talent pay. They are not flexible on RTO so good luck.
