      Pros

      Solid product, with some very intelligent people working for the organization.

      Cons

      Over the course of my tenure, Anaplan has never ceased to amaze be by how little they value their employees. This can largely be summarized by leadership's mantra "customer first". What that really means, is REVENUE above everything. Any organization worth their while would value their employees over everything else. That's how you create an organization with strong culture. Instead, my time at Anaplan was spent watching employee after employee get mistreated, and tossed aside without reason. Turnover here is higher than anywhere I've been in my career, and a lot of that stems from the poor HR team (who regularly fills this page with inflated 5-star reviews).

      Thank you for your honest feedback. We agree that valuing our employees is the most important thing we can do. We try very hard to Live Our Values Everyday (LOVE) with a focus on how we treat our employees. We encourage and seek feedback through our open forums such as our Company Updates and FAQs. We welcome our new employees with our global onboarding program, update everyone in real-time with our intranet, the Barn and even make a little fun of ourselves with Between Two Barns. We also invested heavily in our new global offices, provided a shutdown at the end of December, and offered a new employee stock purchase program right after we went public. However, we will never get it perfect, and we are always seeking to improve. Since you are a current employee, we strongly recommend that you speak to your manager or HR partner about your concerns. We want to hear your solutions on how we can improve. We will take all of your points into consideration as we continue to create an optimal workplace for our employees. If you’d be open to discuss any of this live, I’d value the opportunity. My email is mike.leary@anaplan.com. Thank you. Mike Leary Global Head of Talent Acquisition

      Pros

      One thing I genuinely appreciated was that the C-suite seemed invested in keeping everyone in the loop. The monthly town halls felt like more than just a formality and gave you a real sense of where the company was headed. When you had a good stretch, people noticed. The company feels like it has real momentum and on a macro level.

      Cons

      Leadership was inconsistent in my experience and seemed to depend heavily on which manager you ended up with. It often felt like luck of the draw. I personally found the planning process to be more reactive than strategic, with urgency only kicking in once results were already suffering rather than getting ahead of it. The workplace culture also had a gossip element that I found draining over time. My biggest frustration was around performance recognition. I observed situations where reported numbers didn't seem to reflect reality, yet the consequences appeared minimal at best. I would have liked to see more transparency and accountability around how top performers were identified and rewarded, because in my experience the current approach didn't always feel equitable to those who were playing by the rules.
