Pros

The company offers strong learning opportunities by working with a modern, top-notch tech stack rather than legacy systems, which helps in building relevant technical skills. The work culture is positive and supportive, with great people and a collaborative environment supported by a flat organizational hierarchy. The office environment is well-maintained, and employees benefit from good facilities such as cab and food services. It is an excellent place for freshers to start their careers, given the exposure and continuous learning opportunities available. Initiatives like “Upskill Weeks” further encourage employees to take ownership of their growth and actively enhance their skill sets. Overall, it's a good place to work with positive work culture.

Cons

The company requires employees to work from the office for at least three days a week, which may feel restrictive for those who prefer fully remote or more flexible work arrangements.

Pros

NA, can't think of anything positive anymore. It's a micromanaging mess.

Cons

Guidewire makes majors shift every 2 years and the last one to take PgM out of PD into its own department is a micromanaging nightmare. We have more status meetings and spreadsheets to update than time to do any work anymore. 3 places to update if I want to take PTO. 7am and 7pm meetings are now the norm. 6 bosses in 10 years, no one can make up their mind on the direction of the company, projects start and are abandoned constantly.
