Pros

Lots of potential across their portfolio. Standard benefits. OK work/life balance (if you're remote). Very interested in creating a culture of improvement - but not necessarily innovation like you'd expect at a software company (See Cons).

Cons

Parent company is way too involved and tries to run this software company like a hardware company (which is most of their portfolio). Aging tech and design of their product portfolio. There was a very toxic political culture when I was there, but that may have changed. Lots of brain drain over the past few years of their most experience leaders and software engineers. No equity (except for some "high potential" hires and some VPs and above... which creates rifts between the haves, the have nots and management - it's common that a high demand new hire gets equity like AI engineers and data scientists, but their manager does not have equity and has to be able to answer questions about their equity as part of their comp.

Pros

- Remote Options - Benefits - A lot of really great people handling the day-to-day work. - If you thrive in a high-stress environment that includes little to no training and ever changing expectations, you would love it at Accruent.

Cons

- Constant focus and strategy changes yearly, quarterly and even weekly. - Refusal to address the real issues causing lack of sales and customers leaving. It's got nothing to do with workers not trying hard enough and everything to do with bad product support, lack of product updates and ignoring customers. - Comp plan got worse each year I worked there. - So many people were either quietly laid off or quit in the last few years that there's very few knowledgeable people left. - Half of the C-Suite have no experience in software sales. - Latest re-org was a nightmare and the most recent additions to C-suite have made it even more difficult to work for (why I left) or with ( why customers are leaving) Accruent.
