Q&A With Apttus Employees
New hires cite our pioneering technologies and market leadership, the opportunity ahead, and the chance to be a part of the company’s transformation as just some of the reasons they joined Apttus. We created the industry’s first and only Intelligent Middle Office Platform™ and last year’s acquisition by Thoma Bravo has allowed us to accelerate and increase investments in our products, people, and processes.
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

The people are for the most part professional and collaborative.
