Pros

A fast passed company with a Cloud product portfolio that is unbeaten in the industry. Great people with a passion for where they work. The ability to build your own career path is still evident in this emerging company which makes for an exciting future if you know how to drive it

Cons

Company is emerging from a startup into a main stream player which causes a number of growing pains. The next couple of years will be exciting or challenging, depending on your point of view

Pros

Parallels is active in a changing market. With the current portfolio there is limited competition. So if you want to be part of the team that helps the cloud service providers to stay "ahead of the curve" than Parallels is the place to be.

Cons

In transition form start-up to corperate processes.
