Accruent Reviews

Pros

The growth this company is experiencing is impressive, and after being acquired by Fortive they now have a parent company that has a strong commitment to continuous innovation and business systems that will move the needle even more. For anyone joining now, this creates a lot of new opportunities for lasting growth and security. For a product marketer, the work is challenging, with a lot of freedom to own the strategy,...

Cons

There's some real challenges that being an acquisition-driven company faces product-wise. Integrations are needed that aren't there yet. Industry solutions are still evolving. These are good problems to have and they're working on them. The bad problems to have is that compensation isn't very competitive and work/life balance was a little skewed the wrong way. I'd be surprised if this isn't something they address...

Advice to Management

Develop more industry solutions and integrations. Review your compensation strategy.

Pros

Accruent offers free snacks and team building.

Cons

There is a lack of transparency.

Pros

Lots of experience to be gained due to the large amount of products and high need to technical adaptation. Open PTO is pretty good depending on management. Work/life balance is solid, bar for a few very long days or weekends.

Cons

Salary is not market value and management is not always the most transparent when it comes to achieving a higher salary opportunities, if any are even really possible. Numerous times I had management try to dissuade the idea of getting higher payment even after being there for more than a year. Management doesn't really do much to try to keep longer term employees happy for their tenure and thus causes a drop in morale....

Advice to Management

If you can be more transparent to your employees even if it comes to delicate topics such as salary as to why something can or cannot be done, I feel like people would be overall much more happy. It is better to tell someone something realistic and obtainable versus telling them something that "might" happen and then end up very disappointed in the long run. No more no warning lay offs. That hurts moral and really...

Pros

The opportunities are available to gain as much experience as you want, which can be great as a first job in software.

Cons

With the rapid growth and acquisition of companies the structure of teams and processes get changed all the time and usually without much thought.

Pros

I have been with Accruent New Orleans office since November 2018 and here are my opinions about the company. There are MANY reasons you want to consider reading this before joining the Accruent. 1. Unlimited PTO (Paid Time Off) - As long as your manager approves of it, you can take off while being paid. 2. Flexibility - You may be able to WORK FROM HOME depending on your team and your situation. 3. Skills...

Cons

1. Being part of a company that acquires other companies can be scary... but from my experience it has been nothing but greatness! 2. Being in the CBD area of New Orleans, paying for parking is bad. The company offers wageworks as well as a discount to lower the fees with local parking companies, making it a bit better.

Advice to Management

Thank you for your open communication and including the remote locations into your HQ events. We appreciate this and absolutely would like to see more of it.

Pros

Accruent is one of the BEST companies that I've worked for. They truly seem to be interested in the employee and doing what it takes to help you succeed. The company culture is rich and diverse. I work in the New Orleans office, which is a recent addition, and we are encouraged to develop our own unique culture. The director of the New Orleans office is truly a great guy and strives to help us as employees reach our...

Cons

While I'm sure things are not perfect, I have yet to find anything that I would consider a "con".

Advice to Management

Keep up the awesome job that you're doing!

Pros

Cons

Too many acquisitions led to poor communication Salary was below industry average

Pros

Strong support to grow and learn professionally, fast paced environment, rapid growth, eye for talent, global footprint, and part of a strong network of Fortive companies.

Growing pains at truly becoming a global company, vast product portfolio is complex and can be challenging to grasp.

Advice to Management

Our people are our secret sauce, continue to find ways to invest in their growth and development. Continue to clearly articulate our vision and our "why" at every opportunity.
