Pros

Good pay if you are a male and older in age

Cons

AVEVA purchased our company, I was not hired by them. My incoming manager told me that I was too young for my job and demoted after having never seen my work. As an exempt employee he expected me to work 60 hours a week, putting my hourly pay only slightly above minimum wage. All positions of power are dominated by men. Women have no hope of equal treatment in the product development team. Our direct management was over 5,000 miles away and demanded direct control over our process, creating a toxic environment where trust eroded and emotions were worn thin.

Thank you for taking the time to share your thoughts and feelings with us. AVEVA takes diversity very seriously and we are very proud to have been awarded the “Women in Science and Engineering (WISE) Employer of the Year” accolade in 2017 in recognition of our efforts to promote gender diversity in our organisation, particularly within our technical teams. We recognise that we have work to do in this area and we are committed to a range of initiatives to improve gender diversity globally in our organisation. With any period of growth and change there can be a period of uncertainty, so we empathise with how you may be feeling and are working hard to ensure that the organisation responds in the best way to meet the challenges that the future may bring.

Pros

Great company culture, people stay here for years, which says a lot about how the company treats its employees (and how employees treat customers). The CEO and execs are clearly passionate about sustainability and helping the industrial sector improve its operations and engineering processes with industrial intelligence. Great products for major industries (power, city/country infrastructure, consumer products...). This is overall a great company to work for.

Cons

No red flags from my end.
