Pros

their product is reliable and incorporated new technology quickly. the product is used by all major industries in mechanical engineering including automobiles, aerospace, energy etc. and achieves good success. People in their development there work really hard. The company is changing rapidly to get aligned with the holding company product suite.

Cons

many good developers leave the company in recent years. The career path is not good. The salary is below average. A lot of meetings and talking. Only a small number of people finally get the core product moving forward.

Pros

Opportunity to work in diverse technologies, industries. Abaqus remains an awesome product. Many knowledgeable and smart people.

Cons

Proliferation of too many sales and operational people has diluted the focus and lead to excessive political bureaucracy. Focus on sales has increased manifolds and sales extort disproportionate credit for any increase in revenue undermining the role of other factors. The contribution of product quality, documentation , support and dedication of engineers is undermined. Too many incompetent managers have been promoted over the past few years. It is surprising to see supposed technical heads who will struggle with the basics of FEA and structural mechanics !!!! If the trend continues, product quality will eventually suffer and the product will collapse over the next 10-20 yrs.
