Great benefits, good pay, decent comp plan

Minpunten

Lack of company culture, lack of department culture, lack of internal process with strong emphasis on shadow bureaucracy (there are many wrong ways, and not very many right ways, to do things). General lack of training and development on all levels

I am on the M-Files Executive Team and started our US business over ten years ago. I currently run Global Marketing and I can help influence most anything about the company. I'm sorry you feel this way, and everyone's opinion is valid and welcome, but fortunately, your experience is not common. First, some of what you are describing is so much different than what we would generally hear from our team members; so, for what it is worth, I thought I'd offer my perspective. Maybe it's our Finnish origin heavily influencing us, but in all my career, I have never worked in a company that is as open and transparent as M-Files. As a result, it's hard to understand some of your comments. To be specific, in my experience, the amount of time and effort M-Files invests in specifically fostering culture and employee morale is unusual. We hold company events and parties, snacks and meals are regularly catered, we have generous vacation and PTO, provide exotic travel and activities for top performers, community and volunteer activities, employee satisfaction surveys and outreach, etc. That's not to say that some companies may do more, but M-Files does a lot. Regarding little training and development, again, it's hard for me to understand your experience. The company invests heavily in training and individual development, both as it relates to specific professional skills and also to personal development. All employees are encouraged to think about it, participate in it, and are always welcome to ask for more of it if needed or desired. This includes a variety of levels of internal product and skills training, online and in-person, as well as company paid external training and professional development. We are committed to this, and this very topic is a specific area of our annual review process; no manager can just decide not do this for their team members. I want to emphasize again, that my comments don't invalidate your experience, and I can't say I am directly involved with your team, or the training and skills development you have been offered, so please reach out to your direct manager or HR. If you feel less comfortable doing that, please reach out to me directly. I can assure you I will engage. Greg Milliken

Pluspunten

Talented and collaborative team High-impact, customer-facing work Strong exposure to enterprise environments

Minpunten

High performance does not guarantee stability Limited transparency from leadership Recognition and rewards may not fully materialize Workload could become excessive at times Layoffs impacted strong contributors I spent four years here as a Sales Engineer and consistently performed at a high level. I supported enterprise deals, partnered closely with Sales, Product, and Engineering, and contributed meaningfully to pipeline growth and customer success. I also carried a significant workload, often working extended hours to keep up with demand. At one point, the volume of work was high enough that management had to step in and redistribute some of my responsibilities. Despite that, I remained fully committed and continued delivering strong results. Despite strong performance, I was let go in early 2026. What made the experience especially frustrating was that I had earned President’s Club (148% of quota in 2025) and the associated BVI trip, but was not given the opportunity to attend due to the timing of the "layoff". It was difficult to see both sustained effort and recognized performance ultimately not translate into stability or follow-through. While I understand that business decisions are driven by broader factors, there was limited transparency leading up to the organizational changes, which added to the frustration. Based on this experience, it’s difficult to fully recommend this employer. Based on this experience, I would encourage candidates to carefully evaluate how performance, recognition, and organizational decisions are aligned.
