Pros

Anaplan has some of the best people - many tenured people who have stayed through massive amounts of change, coupled with new people and skill sets to support Anaplan getting to the next evolution of our journey. Our customer base is top notch - iconic logos solving tough problems with Anaplan. Our technology solves real business problems and can make not only our customers' businesses better, but can elevate one's career. We have a new exec team that is bringing operational excellence to ensure each facet of the team delivers within our areas of accountability. And I LOVE our product roadmap!

Cons

We are fairly distributed, which isn't a con as much as it requires one to be incredibly prudent on networking and connecting with others. As I said, we have great people who are willing to support - you just need to make sure that you have a strategy to navigate. (We do have people near offices and are exploring a return to office pilot that seems to have people really excited.)

Pros

One thing I genuinely appreciated was that the C-suite seemed invested in keeping everyone in the loop. The monthly town halls felt like more than just a formality and gave you a real sense of where the company was headed. When you had a good stretch, people noticed. The company feels like it has real momentum and on a macro level.

Cons

Leadership was inconsistent in my experience and seemed to depend heavily on which manager you ended up with. It often felt like luck of the draw. I personally found the planning process to be more reactive than strategic, with urgency only kicking in once results were already suffering rather than getting ahead of it. The workplace culture also had a gossip element that I found draining over time. My biggest frustration was around performance recognition. I observed situations where reported numbers didn't seem to reflect reality, yet the consequences appeared minimal at best. I would have liked to see more transparency and accountability around how top performers were identified and rewarded, because in my experience the current approach didn't always feel equitable to those who were playing by the rules.
