Splunk

Splunk used to be a great company to work for. Agile, innovative, fun, with great leadership – we're not that company anymore. The only other pro is our new building; it's pretty sweet.

Toxic leadership, especially within my engineering org. Poor decision-making at the senior executive level. I don't feel like my manager or team lead has my best, or the company's best interest in mind; it seems a lot of the decisions are ego-driven. Salaries aren't competitive in engineering either; most people are just staying until they're fully vested. Perks could be improved: no cafeteria, gym, 401k, etc. Splunk will surely start to lose talent soon.

Grow up. Look after your people. Make better decisions, communicate them, and walk us through the reasons decisions were made.
