      Pros

      Great culture, great people, incredible benefits like you can't find anywhere else. Lots of fun perks for employees like snacks, activities, etc.

      Cons

      Very reactionary and disorganized business. HR can't seem to function at any level of efficiency. Upper management is constantly pivoting on their plans and projects. Though this is not true for most of the company, the department I work (finance) is run by fear - there is no positive reinforcement or project management.

      Pros

      Rocket provided the freedom to make business decisions with customers which I thought was critical when negotiating with customers in a timely manner. The commission structure was good and management often added additional sales incentives. It was a pleasure to work with some great people at Rocket who are really smart and hard working. Rocket does have some good products with some very satisfied customers.

      Cons

      Rocket has many many software solutions that do not really fit together in one cohesive product portfolio. Very little training was provided so it was difficult to having meaningful conversations with customers when you were speaking about storage competing against EMC, then expected to discuss BI competing against Tableau, and then next discuss mainframe tools competing against CA and IBM (who happened to be our #1 partner). The website was awful for years which definitely hurt sales while Rocket continued to spend a lot of money on leadership summits and sales consultants which both failed to add much value in my eyes. Rocket does have some good solutions but most products fit into the category of declining to zero new sales with a large but declining maintenance revenue stream.

      Pros

      There are many seasoned professionals who know what they are doing and have good visions for their products. High accountability among the teams and focused on improvement. Most have a good work ethic, but many are approaching burnout from stripping away resources.

      Cons

      Upper management is NOT transparent, and refuses to have skip-level conversations. IBM-GROWN upper management brought over their bias and inexperience with market analysis and true product management. As a result, features are slammed into products without proper analysis and prioritization. When products fail to deliver on their promises, the product team is scapegoated.
