Pros

Modern software (cloud, mobile, social) makes it an exciting challenge. Growth has been strong which creates a lot of career opportunities. Employees and managers are expected to seize upon opportunities to make them a success with accountability.

Cons

Software firms on the east coast aren't common when compared to west coast. Appian represents more of a east coast environment (i.e. more formal) than one would expect at a modern software firm. This works for many people, but those expecting something less formal will need to adjust.
