Pros

Great people. Products have a rich history. It's a giant of a company.

Cons

During conferences and customer events, the Micro Focus model is often touted as the company that buys software solutions that have already peaked and are on the decline. Renew the customer as long as you can. There is definitely a place for this model which provides customers with the assurance that the software will remain supported. But... if you're in the software industry and looking to work for a company that is innovative and exciting... you will struggle to find that inspiration here. A bit of a software hospice.
