Cloudera reviews

Limited upward mobility. They sell you hard on the fact that there's tons of growth and how sales dev reps have moved into amazing roles (a closing role, or a marketing role, or enablement) in other departments but it all happened during the hiring frenzy before the IPO. Now it's stagnant. They expect you to stay in role 18+ months before considering you for other roles. The hard part: No real solid plans to move you into new roles, rather they "put out fires as they come". Commission structure changes if you over-perform. Happened to a few people since I've started. Sad. No real training. It's a swim or drown set up. Rather than blame poor performance on crap training, they blame you. The tech is complex, data scientists barely understand how the tech works.. and yet they expect you to know it.. please. When managers ask for feedback, they're really keeping an eye out to see if you're going to leave, rather than try to improve the work environment. No matching plans.. hard when you have a spouse and a mortgage to think about.

Executives are simply, totally, completely drinking their own koolaid. Look at the numerous reviews all posted within hours/days of the management talking about the bad reviews they were getting on a company wide call. Instead of really trying to fix it, they instead make a public outcry so that people would come on here and say nice things. They then went back to their offices and continued to pat themselves on the back. Doesn't work that way management team from execs, product vp's, HR, and most specifically the field leadership.
