Great Staff, Great Products - Anonymous employee PowerSteering Software Employee Review

It used to be a small company with really smart people that paid quite well. There were really some of the brightest minds around with great ideas. No deadweight. Little turnover. A lot of opportunity to come up with new ideas, incubate, and do whatever it takes to satisfy the customer.

Growing pains are evident. Lots of process and policies and turnover. There is little product knowledge left from a technical standpoint. The management focus is to cut costs even if that means losing the best employees. The CEO seems to be positioning the company as a low-cost suite of software products that might be an attractive acquisition target to a company like, say, Oracle, who will have their hands full with what they wished for.

Expected to do your work and manage your time, so flextime and work from home perfectly fine. Pace of work brisk but reasonable. Plenty of great problems to solve, and powerful product.

Office culture a bit stiff, quiet. Larger clients could disrupt planning, development, and software releases. with demands. Definite disconnect between acquiring management company officers and those in the trenches. Must make do with present resources, very reluctant to invest. A lot of hand-me-downs. No training $$.
