Pros
Benefits are good. Good work/life balance in our Finance department. This had more to do with our VP than the company itself. The majority of my co-workers were extremely good at what they do and know how to help when you need assistance.
Kontras
Salaries are not where they should be for what is being asked of everyone. A company cannot work efficiently when they are stripped to the bone of people. Leaving one person in Treasury when there were four is insane! Once AspenTech fully took over, the Minnesota office was treated like the red-headed stepchild. Bedford had a Christmas party where the venue alone was $40k, and Medina got cupcakes and decorations. What company do I work for?! According to my W2, I worked for Open Systems International. They were first bought by Emerson Electric, then by Aspen Technology, and then AspenTech was bought by Emerson Electric. No one knows who is in charge of what department or who is doing what job. You can have people in one department seriously working for three different companies!
