Pros

Working with a team of very smart people in an interesting industry during a time of transformation is a rewarding experience. The overall comp and benefits package has generally been reasonable.

Cons

We're often understaffed for what we're asked to accomplish and not enough attention is paid to properly alleviating internal technical debt that ends up costing significant engineering resources unnecessarily. Also, as with many big companies, it takes a long time and too many meetings to make a positive change. As far as compensation goes, while PTC was doing reasonable, recently they're falling behind market expectations.

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.
