Pros

Owned by Siemens. Some well respected industry leaders (Larsh J and Chris King).

Cons

Inability to deliver product due to lack of foresight into development constraint and making unrealistic promises to customers. Senior executives ( excluding co founders) who are out for themselves only, and have no commitment to stay in the space or leadership drive for developing employees' careers. This includes the current President, the former CEO, most anyone with a VP title. A culture if it can be called that of intrigue, favoritism, back stabbing, and every man for himself. MDM is not a platform with any huge growth prospects. Very high turnover in the engineering and development arena. Lack of product management expertise in Utility processes.

Pros

Great company and coworkers. People are very nice and friendly and the CEC is a nice place to work and the role has flexible hours.

Cons

There is a lot of work to be done so there's a lot of stress that comes with the role. There are times where you will have to work over 40 hours a week. Seems like work-life balance is not prioritized.
