Pluspunten

The people (except senior leadership from FP) are outstanding for the most part. The employees in India seem happy but not sure if that's real.

Minpunten

Francisco Partners (FP) -- the Private Equity firm that owns us. They are destroying what's left. Domain knowledge has been walking out the door either voluntarily or through layoff since they took over two year ago. The cloud product doesn't work -- and although Click wants to be SaaS/cloud company, they always fall back to on-premise, old products because it makes more money -- very short sighted considering the cloud is where the valuation of the company will come from. Sales is a disaster -- no knowledge about how to sell into enterprise accounts or grow the business; and they are now competing head to head with Salesforce.com and Oracle -- good luck with a product that hasn't been selling and can't be implemented with success; just ask the customers -- they are not happy. Also, no more lead generation -- marketing has been marginalized. Professional services has been decimated -- hardly anyone left to implement a solution that takes months to roll out. And PS was where all the product and domain knowledge existed. The UK office is a shell of what it was -- graveyard, really. In Israel, product management is highly inexperienced -- there is no real product vision -- they are stuck in the 1990s. R&D has strong leadership but it's been hell trying to move the development team to agile let alone have the cloud product up and running to meet SLAs. Very reluctant to change. And operations? The systems are so convoluted and process heavy it's amazing Click can even pay its bills or order pencils.

Pluspunten

I came to Click after spending 5+ years at one of the biggest tech companies in the world. I can tell you from first-hand experience, Click is a breath of fresh air. They are nimble like a startup, have the most incredible management team that is willing to roll up their sleeves and jump in the deal to help get it done. Click has a sales first focus that makes this 22+ year sales veteran excited to begin my day, every day. Not to mention, we have the best product in the market and the analysts agree. All the traditional bureaucracy and minutia of large companies does not exist here. If you need something, all you have to do is ask. Everyone is willing to help, including the CEO. They pay their talent well, so if you are a producer, you can make money here. It's an incredibly exciting time to be at Click. With the new leadership and focus on Customer Success, we are at a tipping point and we are poised for explosive growth. I am excited to a part of this incredible company.

Minpunten

The only con that I can see at this time are we move so fast, marketing sometimes has trouble keeping up. This is not a knock on them, but more of a testament as to how fast we are adding incredible capabilities to our already leading product.
