Pros

I loved my time at Elastic. My schedule was extremely flexible. My managers were all capable, understanding, and encouraging. The technology was solid, and the customers appreciated the value we delivered.

Cons

Elastic was quickly becoming a "big" company and was starting to add additional layers and unnecessary bureaucracy.

Advice to Management

Stay small, personal, and people-focused.
