Pros: There is a good work-life balance, but terrible senior leadership. It used to be much better in the past.

Cons: There was complete incompetence from senior leadership. There was a total lack of direction and company identity.

Pros: - Great product. - Many nice colleagues. - Good culture. - Frequent F2F team meetings.

Cons: Some managers are simply not good for a company; get rid of them. It used to be a 5-star company, but not anymore. Culture suffers a lot from the above-mentioned people.

Pros: Shut down days are great. Decent initial OTE.

Cons: No career path from SMB -> Commercial -> Enterprise for SAs. Middle management leaves a lot to be desired. Annual comp increases are trivial. Three vastly different products to sell. Security and Observability solutions aren't best in class. Extremely technical and not straightforward to kickoff a POC. Support is a joke, and CSE only engaged with small, month-to-month customers. This makes the SA responsible for all these things. The search solution was a little different; we definitely seemed to have an advantage in that market. I'm extremely concerned now that AWS has released serverless OpenSearch. ESS (Elastic Cloud) can't even autoscale to a larger CPU. Lastly, there's the laying off 13% of the entire org. 90% of everyone in Austin was let go. Company has core values, but those are only optional.
