Pros
Some of the staff are nice and particularly helpful, others aren't interested in helping An easy place to work - no appraisals, no goals so no pressure. Autodesk implementing new processes.
Cons
Clique culture. If you're in the right circle then you get on in this company, irrespective of how good you are. No processes. The company didn't have a HR function until it was bought by Autodesk! In my 8 years of employment I haven't had an appraisal. Not a place to learn anything about business. The marketing was slated following the acquisition and hasn't changed. Slow development. Development don't believe in developing functionality until the money is on the table - this philosophy will never work! No market awareness. The company is development lead. Developers develop what they want and the company then works out how to sell the products. This will hit Delcam hard in the years to come. No business intelligence. Its impossible to monitor customers/sales performance apart from one financial figure. The office is very dated. Its embarrassing to call ourselves a high tech company and then entertain customers/prospects in this building. The company survived for a long time with no strategy, or focus. This will change under Autodesk's leadership.
