Pros

All of the people I worked with were great. They were smart, driven, wanting to do the right thing. They want to be customer focused and data driven.

Cons

Top-down driven with an emphasis on execution; doesn’t match my desires but may work for you depending on what level you’re at. Middle management felt disempowered in some cases and cross team planning was messy.

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.
