Pros

Most helpful and friendly work environment I've ever been in. I feel like my opinion and work is really valued and appreciated. I know my boss would fight for me if I ever needed it. The executives are great and take time to listen to the employees and their needs. There are many programs put in place to foster good morale. Great work-life balance!

Cons

I'm very happy with this company, but if I had to find a con it would be having to deal with a parent company creates extra steps in some of our processes. They are also a great company, so there are rarely major hiccups, but there are still some added challenges. Our parent company, Verisk Analytics, has brought a lot of great things to Xactware as well so it's just a give and take.

Pros

- Good benefits - Secure positions (they don't fire people to trim the budget) - Excellent facilities - Flexible work-from-home policy in most departments (as long as you aren't abusing it) - Fun activities for the whole family (I'm a fan of the movie nights on the lawn)

Cons

- Management is moving backward, not forward. - Promotions are given based on who you are friends with. - There is a severe lack of diversity especially in management. - Once they have made up their minds, senior management won't listen to concerns or suggestions. But they don't give you a chance to express your concerns or suggestions before they make up their minds. - There is a lack of communication across departments. People are duplicating work because no one is talking to their counterparts in the rest of the company. - The product release is driven by development. This might be a pro if you are a developer. But for marketing, sales, implementation, QA, documentation, training, and support, it is a pain in the neck. The company doesn't look good if you are learning about a product feature for the first time when a customer asks you a question about it.
