Pros

PTC has a very good compensation plan, and excellent vacation plan. The individuals I work with directly in my location are wonderful.

Cons

Top exec team seems to be more interested in chasing shineys than actually following through on any given direction. They buy up good companies and then change priorities immediately and go after a new strategy, leaving the acquired business blowing in the wind. some of the directions they take seem to make sense, but after changing direction so many times it is impossible to feel motivated to do anything. We waist money on useless things all the time, but then won't spend money on obvious things like hardware to actually develop the products we want to sell.

Pros

Flexible, great colleagues, good HR training on goals and objectives

Cons

Depends on the group, toxic culture pockets exist, abusive and bullying behavior is laughed at and accepted rather than corrected, unclear strategy, business unit level vision is lacking, no accountability, several HR complaints against a manager go unaddressed, slow to change, can be chaotic, more interest in checking the box than hitting the right mark.
