Pros

Great collaborative work environment. Work with lots of really smart people who care about what they build. Recent hires have helped improve the team.

Cons

Need to do more to develop our own people. Development needs to build things faster. It would be good to have more cross-team mobility. Be willing to fire people that don't perform well.

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.
