Pros
Beautiful office, nice perks like lunch and a gym and fresh fruit on a daily basis. For those that like a challenge, there are numerous opportunities to improve market presence and internal processes.
Cons
Independent thinking is considered a flaw at QAD - the executive committee is content with status quo and surfacing alternative ideas can be seen as insubordinate. “Just do what you are told” are unspoken words at QAD. The leadership team lacks experience outside QAD and regularly rejects proven best practices and data driven decision making. The insular command-and-control culture can be very frustrating to those who see opportunity to improve things. For a company that prides itself on building the effective enterprise, it is ironic that QAD’s business processes are not operating at peak efficiency nor perfectly aligned with their strategic goals.
