Pros

Amazing product and a lot of talented people in the company. Sufficient training was provided especially for the consultants (guardians), which is one of the selling competitive advantage in the ecosystem.

Cons

Focus has shifted from being the best APM company that cares and nurtures their talents to "The best APM company that only focuses on profit". There are a lot of talents across different regions that have been thinking that they're just a number with salary on their head, if the company thinks that they're not profitable there's a huge chance that the company will cut them due to the headcount. We have lost our culture for the past 2 years due to the focus on the profit. It's a shame that these pool of talents are not appreciated, thus a lot of them chose to move on. Some of the teams are alienated and the KPI set for them doesn't match the company's goal.

Pros

Decent Product Great Perks Co-Workers

Cons

A lot of what happens to your career is beyond your control. You can be a top performer and still only meet satisfied in remarks. The customer success departments went through some changes earlier this year and it left it splintered. A lot of toxic environments take place in pockets and everyone is cliqued up. I suppose you could say this is like every corporation, but this was junior varsity level office politics. If you made someone upset you could be next. Most of the executive leadership and brings in their buddies who have no idea how the product works and all of the veterans have left by now. It's mostly a game of grab behind and brown nosing.
