Pros

Feels good to work with some many bright people. Very professional, yet human and fun. Company approaches everything (particularly Sales) with confidence in its products and people yet with a sense of humility. Management and executive leaders are outstanding. They established 3 core values that are visible every day. It's not "flashy" or "household" name but it's a super company that's serving an important yet under served market.

Cons

None to report. Should have joined earlier.

Pros

NA, can't think of anything positive anymore. It's a micromanaging mess.

Cons

Guidewire makes majors shift every 2 years and the last one to take PgM out of PD into its own department is a micromanaging nightmare. We have more status meetings and spreadsheets to update than time to do any work anymore. 3 places to update if I want to take PTO. 7am and 7pm meetings are now the norm. 6 bosses in 10 years, no one can make up their mind on the direction of the company, projects start and are abandoned constantly.
