Guidewire Work Experiences
- 5.0Great company to work for. Very accommodating throughout the pandemicSoftware Engineer Intern • Former EmployeeDublin, County Dublin, IrelandJanuary 15, 2021Pros: Great work environment and people.Cons: Travel in the mornings isn't the most accessible from where I was from.
- 5.0Great Balance, Friendly ManagersSenior Applications Engineer • Current EmployeeDublin, County Dublin, IrelandFebruary 26, 2021Pros: Very good work-life balance. Managers are very helpful and employee-friendly. Lots of benefits are available.Cons: Difficult to find any cons except salary standard.
- 5.0Great place to work and a good, strong cultureSenior DevOps Engineer • Current EmployeeFoster City, California, United StatesSeptember 16, 2017Pros: Everyone works well together, and the company values successfully promote a great working atmosphere. Another big plus is the ability to fairly easily move around. If you are burning out coding, you can try QA or product management, not instantly, but likely a lot faster than at most other companies. Management structure is also good; it's not in the way but instead helpful. Finally, Scrum has been used for a while. If you are a fan, you will like the company's rather pure approach.Cons: Honestly, none unless you come into the company with some wild internet start-up expectations. It is well past that free meals, crazy hours, etc. phase most software companies go through.
