Pros

Its been a little over a month here, and Cloudera's been very good for me so far. The facilities and the onsite perks for employees are very good and are better than most, if not all, valley companies. The culture of work is very open, and people are willing to help you onboard as well as spend time handling critiques when seeing things with a new perspective.

Cons

Growing fast, a lot of hiring across all areas, so there are certainly some growing pains with communication/information dissemination, and feeling directly connected to the whole, especially if you are new and haven't waded through the rivers of Hadoop prior.

Pros

Excellent talent pool, good perks and clear outlook for the company. Inspite of stiff competition, Cloudera is and will continue to be the market leader in the Big Data space. As a brand, Cloudera is worth the hype.

Cons

Very stiff competition in the big data segment, need a much more defining/attractive differentiators from the rest of the companies in this space

Pros

Had good people but they have all left just legacy Cloudera old school surviving in the boys club Management only look after themselves but at least it's obvious

Cons

Executive Management live in a bubble, and not focused on the customer just look after themselves CDP Product is currently vaporware - Cloud Vendors are doing it better faster and cheaper Sales isn't a focus and customer success is bottom of the list Everything is about the merger and processes are broken
