Pluspunten

For years, Renaissance was a stable happy job. Benefits were good, work life balance were good.

Minpunten

We became hyper focused on hitting metrics. Pointing became a performance metric and no longer reflected real world work. Eventually layoffs started and I survived 2 waves before the third took me. Learned afterwards that Renaissance began outsourcing work overseas more or less right after.

Pluspunten

Some of the most amazing people you’ll ever work with. Generally supportive peers. Leaders are kind and not intentionally toxic. Strong brand recognition and a variety of solutions to enable solution selling.

Minpunten

The culture of the organization seems to have succumbed to the broader climate surrounding politics and education. Immense pressure is placed on sales team to deliver in saturated territories with beyond unachievable quotas for some and cake quotas for others. No cost of living increases, lots of layoffs and unclear path for growth with an egregious lack of transparency from leadership about the glaring issues. NONE of this seems intentional or malicious-it just seems like a lot of behaviors caused by extreme desperation.
