      Pros

      * Nice office, good amenities, nice coworkers

      Cons

      * Some people in management positions do not have the concept of work-life balance * There is a sense of competition rather than team bonding or working together * Personal career development is a myth here

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      HDP, HDF and Data Plane. Hortonworks platform addresses enterprise customer requirements in a way Cloudera was unable to achieve.

      Cons

      The loss of Hortonwork’s leadership. Cloudera leadership, vision and internal controls are severely lacking and or inexperienced.

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good offices Free lunches Flexible environment A few really talented people left, but bleeding hard Exciting technology in an exciting domain & era Big customer base

      Cons

      Inversed meritocracy: work well, do grunt work, execute & please customers, you will get nothing (and someone else will get the credit). Screw-up, befriend management or old timers and you will get an all-hands shootouts and promo Too many unnecessary layers or middle layer/PM obfuscating reality and who have zero clue. Any creativity is getting killed by those. Competition already passed-us
