Market leading products, okay to work for it you're the right "type" - Anonymous employee Guidewire Employee Review

The work becomes repetitive and tedious over time. There's minimal innovation across roles - projects follow the same patterns repeatedly with little opportunity for creative problem-solving. Culture issues are significant. There's a troubling dynamic where Guidewire consultants routinely undermine partner consultants and deflect blame for project issues onto external resources.
