Elastic

Lots of smart, hard-working, and decent people who are a pleasure to work with.

Company is still fully remote, and while total compensation is a bit less generous than it was during the tech boom, it's still solid.

Technology is still impressive and well-positioned to benefit from advances in AI while staying true to our core value as a search and data company.

Recent focus on delivering a serverless Cloud offering was impressive.

Had a bit of a rough period after the CEO switch, but it feels like we've stabilized and are executing better.

Work can be intense, and it's always hard to find enough time to pay down technical debt from the startup era while keeping up with the latest company priorities. The quality of senior leadership is lacking in some departments.

Stay true to the Elastic Source Code, especially in senior leadership.

Make space to celebrate successes and catch up after major milestones.
