Good Sales Methodology and follow up, weak on R&D and overall motivation of staff

Senior Manager (Former Employee)
Sydney

I worked at SunGard full-time for more than 10 years

ProsDecent pay, diversity of people due to multiple acquisitions, global reach, good training and incentives for sales people. Some segments are doing very well with above par products and people.

ConsToo conservative on innovation, lack of investment and ambition on R&D, synergies between various segments very limited. One weak segment can drag the reputation of the whole company down.

Advice to Senior ManagementLimit the reach and size and stick to what SunGard does best: Back and Middle Office, Accounting systems and Risk spin-off or sell under performing segments.

No, I would not recommend this company to a friend – I'm not optimistic about the outlook for this company
