Pros
Cisco uplift as well as a new partner network. A proven go to market strategy!
Cons
Limited growth and now part of a much large organisation with little development on the product in comparison to other competitors

Pros
Extreme engagement and dedication not only from management but from peers and others across all teams. Open and fun - people work hard but they also make time to have fun. Feedback loop and data-driven - people regularly look for better ways to achieve results. They will use data/past experiences to inform decisions to make changes. The culture is designed so one learns from experience, so the more you put... into it, the more you get out of it.

It can be all-consuming. However, the Organisation is clear about the amount of dedication required and what to expect from the first interview. I've experienced nothing less than commitment from those around me to help during challenging times.
Advice to Management
My advice is to continue to be as accessible and supportive as you have been and to continue to foster a culture of people who care about achievement and doing things better not just at work but in their personal lives. I've met some of the most interesting, driven people since joining.

Pros
Great leadership and sales process. This is the place for anyone who wants to learn about true Enterprise sales. Earning potential is very good, although not what it was a few years back before the acquisition.
Cons
Hard work, high pressure and long hours.
Advice to Management
Find the right work/life balance to reduce churn.

Pros
Great work environment, colleagues, culture. Your managers are in their position because of merit, not politics. I truly consider them as professional mentors more than just a more experienced employee. They truly care about how to make you more efficient, what you're struggling with and how to help you improve. Very good atmosphere between colleagues, very fun and nice people which is always a great plus. Very... good salary and if you have good accounts that can get even better. This job will make you want to give the best out of yourself and you will learn a lot in the process
Show MoreCons
You are warned of this in advance extensively, but don't underestimate the time you will spend working, in the office or elsewhere. If you have a 9-6 mentality and like to have your daily/weekly routine, AppDynamics is probably not the right company for you.
Advice to Management
Have a more structured onboarding phase. The first weeks can be a bit confusing, especially if you'ree coming from a large company which has a lot of processes in place.

We appreciate you taking the time to review your experience at AppDynamics. It’s great to hear you’re enjoying your colleagues and Cisco benefits. We agree, there is good money in sales, however, at times a lot of travel is needed. If you feel comfortable doing so, I encourage you to reach out to HR or leave feedback on your Employee Engagement survey to address your unequal treatment concerns in more detail.
