Pros

Exciting products and nice talented people. Perks good too and you definitely do have a ton of autonomy at this company.

Cons

Poor execution for many years in many areas hope they can turn it around with the merger since there products genuinely are good and the people do for the most part work hard.

Pros

I love most of the people at Cloudera. You will never find more helpful folks who are willing to go above and beyond to help you. I also work on an awesome team. I hope to find another team that is just as amazing! The people in my office are top-notch and also people who I consider as friends!! If this was LCLDR, instead of the new Cloudera, I would rate this company 4.5 stars.

Cons

Now for the negatives. I worked under a manager who didn't show any interest in my career development or what I was doing. The manager LITERALLY DIDN'T care! It was extremely disappointing. The morale within the company is extremely low because of many reasons. The turnover rate is also extremely high and you will literally see a talented individual exiting this company almost every day. Trust me, there are many more smart individuals who are planning to leave. This is really unfortunate because of the potential of the company! After the merger, the LCLDR culture has absolutely deteriorated. Cloudera wants to pretend that this merger is the greatest thing since sliced bread, but it has been a disaster. The company should have NEVER merged. Again, it is truly sad to see. Also, the leader of HR tends to make jokes out of serious questions/situations. For someone in HR, she is extremely condescending. Cloudera hires AEs who only care about their commissions and doesn't have the slightest knowledge of what goes on in the backend. Have career development opportunities for everyone at Cloudera. The lack of growth opportunities in many areas within this company is just pitiful. The only reason I am giving Cloudera any stars is because of the amazing people that work there. If it wasn't for the people, it would get half a star in my book.
