100% remote model with 70% profit. Lot of smart people who eventually wake up and move on. - Anonymous employee Aurea Software Employee Review

Pros

Each newly acquired company has to be in that 70% model in a matter of months. Teams get decimated, often only a handful retained per department, remove 100%, I assume for budget reasons. All domain experience is lost and customers go through massive pain for 12-24 months while new team members come up to speed, if the customers stay at all. People are measured through tools that take your picture every ten minutes, tracks your key strokes and mouse clicks. Unbelievably invasive and stunts rather than helps productivity. More sweat shop than software.

Cons

If you are remote, OK with being a unit of work paid hourly rather than a member of a team, Aurea may be right for you. If you want a career or the ability to develop, get annual increases based on over achieving, then it is not. You will make the same money and be requested to do more. You will be asked to perform at levels that are ludicrous, often with little to no training (I have heard some are hired without even being interviewed) and you will get laid off for budget purposes, no matter how good you are. There is no security. People believe that all of these bad reviews are just bitter employees. Some are, but all I ask is that if you take a role….come back and read this in a few months (if you make it that far) and see that this was 100% correct. If you have responsibilities and family to provide for, don’t take the risk.

Pros

Allow for employees to work remote

Cons

This is a shell company with no IP. They purchase distressed assets and get as much as they can in terms of revenue. There is little to no investment in product development.
