How is management perceived at Netdata?
Pros
- High salary compare to the market - Remote working
Cons
Writing this as an honest review so new joiners are aware of what to expect. A real pity as this is great open source project which can really make a difference in the industry but needs different management style and operating model. Still struggling after two years of funding to become a payed product or gain more users. Overall negative company culture and wrong approach as a top down business development which doesn't give enough space or freedom to its very skill-full individuals that are trying to take the product to the next level. CEO is micromanaging and holding on to workers' job duties, instead of devoting energy to more important, bigger-picture tasks. Or as they said on first few weeks of employment 'the greek boss is always right'. For a series A startup the delivery is vey slow (from engineering and product perspective) and needs some push.
Advice to Management
Investors need to rethink or restructure the higher management in order for the company to succeed.

Netdata is a company that is attentive to its opportunities and pains. It tries to adapt and reshape itself to ensure its culture and organization are in the best shape to achieve the business goals. This isn't bad by itself but some stability is needed to give the teams time and space to grow and mature.
