Pros

I have not been here that long but for now it´s been great: * A better onboarding than at any other company I know/have worked at. * There seems to be internal mobility between teams. * Nice work environment and managers that try to keep people motivated. * Good learning culture with smart coworkers. * Lots of work to do, but well distributed so people are engaged but not over-worked. * They keep continuously improving employee benefits, without we having to fight for them.

Cons

* Remote work is discouraged although it can be requested for specific occasions. * Seems to be growing fast, but I hope that does not affect the current culture.

Pros

New Relic truly walks the walk. I love that the company leans into a Challenger Mindset; it creates a dynamic where we are always improving and staying ahead of the curve. Even as a new hire, my perspective feels valued. Beyond the tech, the culture is unprecedented. Everyone is incredibly helpful and stays Accountable to one another. It’s rare to find a place that is this friendly while still maintaining a high bar for getting work done.

Cons

Still in the honeymoon phase, but navigating the vast amount of internal documentation can be a bit of a whirlwind during the first month; definitely feel like "drinking from a fire hose." While the team is supportive, the sheer volume of information can be overwhelming for a newcomer.

Pros

Man, this was a great company back in the day. Almost everyone is gone now.

Cons

Horrific middle management. This was all a long time ago though. The people I worked with are all gone.
