Anaplan reviews about "long hour"

It is observed that the company's focus seems to be primarily on sales with little to no regard for employee development, well-being, or fair compensation. There are instances of long hours with no compensation and teams being downsized abruptly. Despite management's efforts to conceal high turnover, it remains a persistent issue. Additionally, there seems to be a trend of replacing senior employees with more junior ones, which can result in challenges and difficulties for less experienced staff. Appears that HR is publishing positive reviews for the GTM team, which is concerning and indicative of a company in decline. If you are contemplating joining the GTM organization, I would advise you to think twice before proceeding.

Fast-Paced Environment: The company’s rapid growth can sometimes lead to high pressure and fast-changing priorities. Complex Product: The platform can be complex to learn, which might be challenging for new hires without a technical background. Work-Life Balance: Depending on your role, long hours or occasional travel might be required. Growing Pains: As a scaling company, there may be occasional organizational growing pains or unclear processes.

Long hours due to fast pace....but glad to have a fast pace job during these times rather than no job.

Occasionally have to work long hours Frequent turnover in C-suite leads to changes in strategy often

Management is too focused on cutting costs - benefits are not good, no food/fitness/transportation/commute reimbursements Work long hours all the time because teams are so small RTO but a lot of people ignore it "unlimited pto" but has a lot of limitations of when to use it

80% of time is internal process

Awful culture. No celebrations, social events, atmosphere. Just come in, do your job (the job of 3 people) and go home. Everything is based around the US so meetings are always at a time that suits their working day. American run companies always schedule untold amounts of useless meetings for an hour or more which could easily be condensed into 30 mins if they didn’t waffle so much.

Toxic management, sales leaders, micromanagement. Constantly blamed for results while management walk all over people. Bullying from colleagues who are favourites from managers. Very little communication accross teams, no transparency, everyone has their own ways, outdated and traditional culture of work. Long hours and no team events, benifits have been stripped. Constantly blamed for results and my hard work. No idea why people want to work here it's a horrible place. Product is being run down by competition. Wish I stayed at my old workplace.

igh Pressure and Tight Deadlines: The fast-paced nature of the tech industry means that deadlines are often tight, and the pressure to meet them can be overwhelming at times. As a manager, I’m responsible for ensuring my team delivers on time, which sometimes requires working longer hours. While the company is understanding about work-life balance, there are times when it's hard to avoid the pressure. Constant Organizational Changes: The company is growing rapidly, and with that comes frequent changes in team structure, project priorities, and even leadership. While I appreciate the opportunity to adapt and learn, the constant shifts can create some confusion and make it harder to maintain long-term project focus. People Management Challenges: Managing a diverse team of developers and ensuring they’re motivated and productive is no easy task. Some team members thrive in an autonomous environment, while others need more guidance. Striking the right balance between being a supportive leader and a task-driven manager can be challenging, especially when dealing with performance issues or interpersonal conflicts. Limited Technical Involvement: While I started as a developer and enjoy coding, the managerial role has limited my ability to be hands-on with technical work. At times, I miss diving deep into the code and solving problems directly. I do try to stay involved in technical discussions, but there’s always a balance between leadership and technical tasks. Employee Turnover: While the company is great overall, there’s been a higher turnover rate than I expected, especially in junior roles. As a result, we’re often onboarding new team members, which can be disruptive. On the plus side, the recruitment process is robust, and we’re constantly bringing in talented new individuals.
