Pros

In the rapidly evolving Cloud market, Adaptive is laying claim to some of the biggest and most prestigious opportunities. They also are in many of the largest HPC supercomputing environments on the planet. They have a patent portfolio that is very impressive and applies both to the HPC market as well as the Cloud Management market. The Cloud Management space is still a fairly nascent market but I believe Adaptive Computing is well positioned to be very successful.

Cons

The expectation for quality and quantity of work for all employees tends to be very high and they take out the dead wood at least once a year via RIFs.

Pros

I have been in IT for almost 40 years and I have worked for major software companies, including working many years at Oracle. Adaptive Computing is without a doubt, the best company that I have ever worked for. Adaptive is growing under Arthur Allen’s vision and leadership. Even though Adaptive is a relatively small company, 4 more people have been hired that will be starting within the next 2 weeks. Working for Adaptive is both challenging and rewarding because we have many important clients, such as Stanford University, Cisco Systems, NASA, FDA, Honeywell, Johns Hopkins, Lockheed Martin, Dow Chemical Company, IBM, and the list goes on. It is a great environment and great people. If people weren’t getting paid, then nobody would work here. My 5-star rating is not ‘staged’, but is an honest assessment.

Cons

Even though they have a 401K plan, there is no company match. The salary is lower than the average for software companies.
