Pros
Learning a great deal about the short and long term repercussions of a few bad business decisions. Learning even more about how an unchecked and unhealthy culture will erode a company from the inside. Competitive offers are being made to candidates as talent acquisition becomes more desperate. Acquisition target?
Cons
CEO is desperately floundering in his role and placing undue blame on the workforce. COO is not leadership material and is a key contributor to the deplorable culture. People abuser, discourages inter-departmental teamwork. Growth has evaporated. NPS rankings do not represent reality and the inflated numbers justify bad behavior internally Culture of the company has deteriorated so terribly and yet a core group of influencers ostracize anyone who doesn’t blindly jump on their bandwagon Shrinking interest from the market. Nutanix has a market problem and Wall Street made that realization some time ago. Nutanix leadership needs to catch up. Over-hiring is leading to dilution and confusion. Incoming talent is less qualified due to desperate hiring practices. Competition has closed the gap substantially yet Nutanix TCO > all competitive products Product is missing key and obvious features that large customers demand Poor acquisition history. Negative ROI. Lack of quality assurance plagues software releases for 2+ years, undermining customer confidence Benefits are slowly declining in reflection of the financial health of the company Raises were deferred without retroactive pay. Bonuses and rewards often go unpaid due to excuses and technicalities. Middle management surrounds themselves with people who will not challenge them. Ethics suffer and the skill gap grows. Disorganized internally, still operating like a startup. Information and decisions are fractured leaving employees to wing it.
