What a day! What does the future holds for ACI? They will sell us for sure.

What is the likelihood of ACI being sold in the next year? This seems to be a theme in several past comments. Just curious what the current thoughts are on this topic. Who would the potential buyers be?

I'm shocked that we're still able to attract new employees considering there's more than enough info online on the type of culture they're walking into and what mess they're going to find once they start, among other things. All I can think of is... —  read more 

What is up with the bureaucratic nightmare of getting anything done? There are so many systems, processes, and policies in place that make progress almost impossible. Is it me? People don't follow through, make empty promises, and just kind of go... —  read more 

Is the push to have employees go back to the office an effort to increase resignations so layoffs are minimized? There are so many remote positions available in today's market. This decision does not seem employee focused at all.

I have too many complains so I can't single out one as something that frustrates me the most here. Coming to ACI was my biggest mistake. I hope to find a way out as soon as possible.

So part of the business sold. A number of employees sold too along with their new CEO. Interesting times....I wonder if the business is being sold in 2 parts?

Close to a 2 year low, and not that far from a 5 year low. Why?

Was mentioned on another post but worth mentioning here. Anyone who had dealings with her has to be happy.

Earnings weren’t horrible, but the market is down. But ACIW is now at a 52 week low, and close to a 2 year low. Will this company turn things around? The ELT seems stabilized now but the share price hasn’t moved up.

So, instead of fueling innovation, dollars are going to buying back shares, which will prop up the EPS but will do zero for growth. How many layoffs will need to be made to pay for that $250,000,000?

Considering how non-active this board is compared to my current company's, something tells me that applying at ACI wouldn't be a bad idea right now. I can see here that layoffs are not too much of an issue, but what about other stuff, like company... —  read more 

Any news? How is the old sales leader handling products? How is the engineer handling sales? Has Odilon wised up yet? Any more layoffs?

This time I would love to be on the layoff list. I wonder when this became a company where many people suddenly hope to be the target?

Has this rumor been debunked yet?

New ELT member, after a few others left recently. Is he moving to Miami? Denver’s not going to cut it. Younger than everyone else, has a young family. Will probably realize 3 months in what a mistake he made joining when some of the legacy ELT... —  read more 

Some may not agree, but unfortunately, everything indicates to me that this is happening. I wish someone would tell me that this is not true. One should hope for the best, but have their resumes ready to be sent out.

What's going on here?

Is she the next one to leave?

I come from a region that is run by someone who plays favorite and an absolute ruler. If you are his ally you will go very far, if not your position is in danger. My previous post was taken down and I don't know who, how or why! No human in human... —  read more

There were many rumors that big cuts would follow in June. Here it is, June, and the rumors have died down. Does that mean we can relax for a while longer or that it’s quiet before the storm? I hope that earlier story about layoffs was just a false... —  read more 

Have been with ACI just under 2yrs & in that time we've had 5 "leaders" of the region come and go. FIVE! Each one worse than the last. Complaints to Ethics hotline over serious misconduct and breaches left unresolved and "quietly" forgotten. A... —  read more 

The most important thing for every employee to know is 1) members of the ELT are not your friends 2) they will throw you under the bus at any time to save themselves or to cut costs 3) the closer you are in reporting directly to them the more... —  read more 

I haven't been here for long (going on two years) but I'm yet to find a place with a worse work culture than this place. My former workplace was bad, but at least the toxicity was mostly limited to my team and the company was okay. Here, the toxic... —  read more 

Wow! Another day another ELT bites the dust! Anyone else suprised?

Didn't TM just started not long ago....less than 6 months ago? She probably saw no future here and decided it's time to move on to bigger and better things. They have done musical chairs again for replacement. When will this company learn? It will be... —  read more 

Uhoh, time to fire the interim CTO as well as the alleged CRO aka CTO. CFPB is on top of this, massive screwup by ACI.

This place is good at one thing, screwing it's most valuable asset, the employees. Non-stop lay-offs of good people. Remaining employees doing 2-3 people's job. Pay is miserable! ELT gets promoted despite screwing up time and time again. New head of... —  read more 

This company made promises to lure new employees or to retain talent and cut some great people. I should have known better than to come back to this company. Lack of vision, poor implementation of product strategies, etc.

Not good sign when Chief Revenue Officer leaves and ACI appoints engineer who was just named CTO to CRO position. New CRO knows nothing about sales or leading sales team. Disaster coming.

The website has been updated for the ELT. First, the South African is gone. His positions have been distributed to 2 others. The 2 previous Group Presidents keep their employment going despite poor performance and zero people skills. Little... —  read more
