Pros

The people are very nice, driven and tech savvy. The benefits are some of the best I have seen- Thirsty Thursdays, free lunch on Fridays, unlimited paid time off etc. The company is very well funded for its size. CEO is great.

Cons

Attivio is still trying to figure things out, particularly how to create demand for and sell their products. Their software applications are top notch, but not necessarily "must-have" technology. I was brought on to help sell the product and found it very challenging to convince people that the technology was worth the money. Because of this, the company has struggled to find its footing in a niche market and has a proven reputation for quick hiring and quick firing. Over the course of the year that I worked here, I saw many people come and go, often discreetly. Its a decent company but it is far from stable.

Pros

- People: The company has amazing people and the company treats their best employees very well. They also operate pretty lean in management and throughout the company so it is easy to find new opportunities to advance your knowledge/role. - Culture: work-hard/play-hard environment, very lively/energetic, open door policy, CEO actively asks for employees opinions. I have found that I have a lot of autonomy at Attivio and room to innovate/improve and grow. - Strategy & Technology: Attivio has a great technology (with patents) that can help any company save money. It's just about focusing on the right opportunities! As we continue to grow, management has really listened to the customers and fine-tuned the strategy and I think they have hit the nail on the head. This year should be one of our best ever. - Perks: very competitive salary/benefits/bonus, they also feed us lunch on Fridays and have snacks/drinks everyday.

Cons

It's a small company still starting to grow and find its legs, that means there isn't room for people that don't work hard, aren't smart or suck at their job. If you're one of those people you won't last, they'll either manage you out (so you quit) or they'll fire you. I guess for me, this is actually a pro because I don't want to be at a company (where I have options) to be wasting money on people that don't do their jobs. But if you're smart/good, they WILL take care of you, I know from experience!
