Pros

One of the best companies I've ever worked for. - very open, great information sharing from the top - fantastic peers - really high calibre people in all areas of the company - great compensation and benefits - they pay for the best! - great technology - distributed teams are normal, you won't feel marginalized if you telecommute - if you're a developer and love open source, this company is a perfect fit

Cons

- uptick in bureaucratic overhead associated with increased company size

Pros

Cloudera is one of the few places in Silicon Valley that gives you the opportunity to contribute not only to the company, but also to the open source community as part of your job. Being a leader in Hadoop, it is not uncommon to find engineers who are active in the open source community. Compensation is excellent, all the usual benefits of being a tech firm in Silicon Valley are present, such as paid lunches, micro-kitchens with snacks, unlimited vacation and the list goes on. People are very friendly, politics is at a minimum. Excellent place to work.

Cons

The company is growing rapidly and is trying to move from a startup mentality to a more establish firm, as such the need for process and procedures has been noticed and is a work in progress.
