How employees describe working at Apttus
Awful! Bullying culture and no soul
committed for the long term growth
Review from Engineering Dept
- Pension - Health care costs
Overall, Apttus is slowly changing from a fast-paced exciting place to work, to a slow moving revenue engine for the new owners. Competitors are catching up with the technology and Apttus isn't innovating at the rate it needs to to continue being the industry leader

So sad where the company is headed. They are paying their COO 25M for tearing things apart. This man is the closest thing to evil we have met. No sense of morals and “putting customers first”, which has lead to countless Lost deals. Meanwhile my quota rises.

If you could make changes, how would you improve the culture at Apttus?
More integrity when it comes to the gap between the marketing/sales hype and the actual state of our technology. I suppose the rationale is: enterprise software will inevitably be heavily customized to meet the needs of truly large enterprises - so sell the customer what they want and we'll figure out how to have some combination of PS / engineering build it and then productize it later. Not sure how sustainable this is in the long run.
