Pros

I have read some other reviews and find that each department is different. My experience - My co-workers are top notch engineers that are motivated, intelligent and good people. I have a great manager. He is picky about who he hires, which makes for a good working environment. The work/life balance here is good. The department puts out high quality work without stressing everyone out. I like working here. Compensation is good, insurance and PTO is good.

Cons

I am finding that some of my co-workers are leaving for other companies. I don't think Xactware is as competitive in compensation or incentives as they used to be.

Pros

- Good benefits - Secure positions (they don't fire people to trim the budget) - Excellent facilities - Flexible work-from-home policy in most departments (as long as you aren't abusing it) - Fun activities for the whole family (I'm a fan of the movie nights on the lawn)

Cons

- Management is moving backward, not forward. - Promotions are given based on who you are friends with. - There is a severe lack of diversity especially in management. - Once they have made up their minds, senior management won't listen to concerns or suggestions. But they don't give you a chance to express your concerns or suggestions before they make up their minds. - There is a lack of communication across departments. People are duplicating work because no one is talking to their counterparts in the rest of the company. - The product release is driven by development. This might be a pro if you are a developer. But for marketing, sales, implementation, QA, documentation, training, and support, it is a pain in the neck. The company doesn't look good if you are learning about a product feature for the first time when a customer asks you a question about it.
