Pros

Good Employee benefit like free food, competitive health insurance and others. Competitive Salary

Cons

Its a complete Hire and Fire Company. They just hire people if there is a requirement and timelines for hiring. And then just fire you if the respective role is compromised or found another candidate with less salary to fill in. Senior Management is not in good shape and I heard the same from most of the colleagues in other teams as well.

Pros

New Relic truly walks the walk. I love that the company leans into a Challenger Mindset; it creates a dynamic where we are always improving and staying ahead of the curve. Even as a new hire, my perspective feels valued. Beyond the tech, the culture is unprecedented. Everyone is incredibly helpful and stays Accountable to one another. It’s rare to find a place that is this friendly while still maintaining a high bar for getting work done.

Cons

Still in the honeymoon phase, but navigating the vast amount of internal documentation can be a bit of a whirlwind during the first month; definitely feel like "drinking from a fire hose." While the team is supportive, the sheer volume of information can be overwhelming for a newcomer.
