Solution Architect Interview Experience - Australia

May 1, 2017

Negative ExperienceNo Offer

Process

Remote interviews with tech sales manager. Was told I was successful and what the next steps would be. I would hear nothing, then if I contacted them it would sometimes move the process along. This happened a few times, so eventually I gave up - perhaps they weren't interested or just disorganized or both. Spoke to a former colleague who also interviewed with them, who had a similar experience.

Solution Architect • Current Employee

February 18, 2015

Pros: The product is incredible, and almost everyone wants to use it. Doors open at C-level, and the product is starting to be used in ever more strategic projects.

Cons: Within one year, the CEO, CRO, CMO, and CFO have left the company. New sales management is introducing a radically different culture. Change was needed, but we're now headed in the total opposite direction by people who have no open-source background. Lots of people (about 10%) have been laid off recently. Besides the changes, middle management is still incapable of injecting passion or even out-of-the-box thinking. It doesn't matter if you're doing a crappy job as long as you report on it properly.
