Yet another service based company - GCS - SoftwareAG

Consultant

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good product stack as all says. Have few geeks and some real smart people. Number of employees are small so you get to know people really fast. Note : I am aware only for consulting division and not the R&D team.

Cons

Neither people based nor process based. Just another service based company with no much scope for new people to enter consulting. Worst part is that the attrition rate is growing in recent quater and no visible action for identifying the problem.

Pros

good work life balance. good learning.

Cons

company is going through lots of changes and the new management is not ready to listen to anyone. you are bound to do what they are saying or else they will make sure you leave the job. All good people from higher management have left and current culture is toxic and political. I will not advice anyone to join this company, lose peace of mind and spoil their career.
