Pros

Good management. Talented people. New technology. Work-life balance okay, with flexible work hours.

Cons

Overall package is low compared to market. ESPP is 5% whereas 15% everywhere. No bonus (in cloud business unit?). No formal salary review process. Hectic work schedule.

Advice to Management

Consider bonus and RSU, else we can't keep good resources.

Check with competitors like Amazon, Google, Adobe, and Salesforce in the cloud domain.

Management should consider a long-term retention plan, like paying a 20% bonus over 3 years (30%/30%/40%).
