Pluspunten
C-staff is wickedly smart and competent . I believe they are good people too... just lack visibility to what “really goes on” and have some blind spots. Very cool product and zealous customer base. Outwardly seen and viewed as cool place to work. Food, parties, and all that galore.
Minpunten
Below the c-staff, Leadership is abominable. Nepotism is rampant and Splunk “culture” made up of social cliques. You’re “in the cool crowd” (usually orbiting a couple old-timers or part of the CEO’s entourage), or you’re not. If you’re not with the in-crowd, chances are, you’re pretty miserable here. I was hired with a few other senior leaders and told not to “bother anyone with questions”. We were compared to babies and actively segregated apart from the ‘original team’ - and all of us have since left. My experiences were so outrageous and unprofessional that I walked away from a humongous sum of money, just so I could feel valued and feel excited about what I was doing again. It’s a decision I’m proud of...
