Pros

Guidewire employs Great people, provide an Interesting job in an Agile and Friendly environment. It's not an up-or-out model and culture is great too. Friday work from home is a plus!

Cons

Lot of travel if you don't like that doesn't help your work-life balance even with the friday work from home. There is a great request of work from customer and it is difficult to get some training / develop skills not strictly related to project.

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.
