Pluspunten

SolarWinds is a cool place to work at first. From the snacks, lunches, and sales competitions it is easy to not hate going into work. The benefits are ok, but could be better. There is a decent amount of PTO that you get your first year as well.

Minpunten

Even though your quota is set quarterly, the management treats each month like it is end of quarter. The management also encourages high pressure sales tactics that not only burn your customers out, but take a toll on the reps as well. Thanks to their high pressure sales culture you will run into a lot of customers and account that despise talking with you. The company tends to micromanage your sales opportunities and go over the top to customers. This shows that they don't trust their sales reps regardless of how much experience you may have. Recently a large number of upper management was either fired, or left the company. This has lead to a lot of internal changes that aren't for the best. The real kicker is the head of the sales organization has never actually done sales. He was in the marketing department.

Pluspunten

Amazing office space in Charlotte with a strong emphasis on work-life balance. There are plenty of social events and networking opportunities that help employees stay engaged and build relationships across different business units. The recent IT reorganization has created a unique opportunity to participate in system and process design initiatives. While this level of change and transformation may not appeal to everyone, it offers valuable experience for those who enjoy shaping new processes and driving organizational improvements. I am optimistic about the direction of the organization and confident in the vision and leadership of the new IT management team.

Minpunten

Career advancement opportunities can sometimes feel limited within a satellite office environment, and promotion paths are not always clearly defined. Employees seeking long-term growth may benefit from having proactive career development conversations with leadership. The recent IT reorganization has introduced a period of transition, resulting in some uncertainty and lower morale across parts of the organization. The department is currently in a rebuilding phase, and new employees should expect to contribute to the implementation of new processes, systems, and ways of working. Compensation appears to be somewhat below market rates for certain roles, which may be a consideration for candidates prioritizing salary growth.
