Pros

Good food and snacks. If you like to work for such, it is a good place to go.

Cons

After joining Pure Storage, I was like all other new hires, so glad I could pass all the tough interviews and eventually joined it. I was glad because most of the Glassdoor reviews said that it was a great company, but the reality to me was completely different. I was hired by Group-A. In a few weeks, I was asked to work at Group-B. Then, in a few months, Group-B's manager told me that I was not a qualified person, so they fired me. Wait a minute, should you send me back to Group-A, as Group-A hired me? No matter Group-A or Group-B, the company hired me as a qualified engineer but in a few months fired me as non-qualified. Is it a serious company? By the way, I did not apply, but a Pure Storage recruiter pursued me. I quit my previous job to join Pure, but very soon, I became a jobless person. I hope this will not be your experience.

Advice to Management

I'm not sure what to say to management as I was not with the company long enough to comment. However, my experience told me that middle and low-level management is not trustable.
