Pros

If you’re in a department that follows Deltek’s values, it truly is a great place to work at. You’re inspired to work among smart colleagues and great managers who respect their team. The executive team are sharp and smart people I felt that I could trust in their company goals. Benefits are fantastic. Wonderful career opportunities if you look in the right places. Prospectives: It is definitely recommended to try and network with potential colleagues who can give you a better layout of the team you would potentially join.

Cons

Unfortunately in other departments, employees are leaving within weeks of each other because some of management (not all) are abusing their power to ensure their own tasks are completed over what they require for their own employees. Allegedly, I’ve heard the following from colleagues who left: -Verbal Harassment, allegedly -Workplace Bullying, allegedly -Overworked (to point of exhaustion), allegedly -Detriment of Mental Health from a few teammates, allegedly -Inability to take PTO due to micromanagement and fear of a supervisor’s supervisor looking for a fault in a colleague of mine, allegedly. -Lost PTO hours that were not paid out in full across a few departments due to lack of communication and keeping policy vague, allegedly -Directors and Senior Directors taking advantage of one VP for their own benefit of improved bonuses for them over the health of the entire team, allegedly

Pros

Good culture and supportive coworkers One thing that stands out is that employees repeatedly talk about the people being collaborative and easy to work with. For CSM teams especially, there are comments about low internal drama and strong teamwork.

Cons

Morale dips after layoffs: Common issue in enterprise SaaS. Remaining employees sometimes inherit extra accounts or responsibilities after reductions. Internal communication can get corporate/vague. Employees sometimes mention leadership messaging during reorganizations feels polished but not fully transparent. Career growth uncertainty during restructures: When leadership changes or teams merge, promotions and advancement
