Pros
Some of the best and brightest people work here. Very high caliber engineers and programmers. Good benefits and the work is cutting-edge. A lot of out-of-the-box thinking and solutions. You will learn a lot working here.
Cons
There has been a significant amount of changes in management, even before the company went private, and this trend is expected to continue, which is normal for any organization. However, New Relic is still grappling with appropriate priority setting and attempts too many initiatives simultaneously, which makes it incredibly challenging to complete anything. Additionally, if anyone is even slightly critical or speaks up, it puts a target on them, and they are considered a threat. The VPs and directors micromanage their employees and are not adept at managing people, which is leading to the departure of good talent. Expect layoffs every year and sometimes twice a year.
