Pros

Growing fast but keeping the talent level high. Many companies use the term "one team" but this company lives it. I've been offered help by people from teams across the company to help expedite my ramp time. Most companies are already using the technology and it is quickly becoming a mission critical part of their business. Confluent has built a great platform around Kafka to ensure the success of their customers. You really feel as you are helping your customers gain a competitive edge. I continue to learn every day and my excitement continues to grow. I'm really happy to be here!

Cons

It is still a start up. While the processes continue to improve and feedback is welcomed there is a learning curve when trying to figure where/who to go to in certain situations.

Pros

First off, this is not a paid/fake review you often read on other company reviews. I work at Confluent and love it. Read on for more... Working at Confluent is one of the most rewarding experiences of my career. Our offering is helping some of the world’s biggest and best companies transform their business. My colleagues are smart, humble and dedicated to event streaming success for all our customers - large and small. It’s energizing working with people I respect, enjoy, and learn from on a daily basis. On top of that the pay is pretty good. Perks are really good. Equity opportunity is outstanding. And most importantly, being part of the company creating a generational/new paradigm for application and data infrastructure is priceless. Our growth is unprecedented and that’s difficult for every group in the company. However, we’re getting even stronger as a result. For example , our cloud and feature-release roadmap is rapidly accelerating and poised to enable our customers to do even more, with less.

Cons

It’s a fast moving late-stage startup and not for everyone. Adapting to change to facilitate our growth can be tough.

Pros

The culture and team are outstanding! Very transparent, focused on common mission, collaborative and fast moving. Confluent treats employees very well, and really walks the talk about importance of employees and positive culture!

Cons

Nothing really, just the typical challenges of being a high-growth start-up.
