Pros

Great work environment and "technically" smart people. Everyone is easy to talk to at the surface level and willing to help. They care about every employee's well being and happiness. Healthy use of scrum and kanban at the team level means there are lots of opportunities to learn new things.

Cons

Too bad caring doesn't always translate into success. Management, I don't want to call them leadership, is seriously confused and unfortunately in-experienced in scaling an organization or moving past the basics of what it means to be Agile. For a start-up I felt spoiled working here and the amount of money wasted on non-value add crap and perks (while I loved them) was kind of scary and irresponsible at the same time. The people are smart but with it comes a hubris and also general fear of failure that has hindered the company from taking meaningful risks or recognizing and quickly adapting to failures at all levels of the company.

Pros

Qumulo has a long history of incredible hires. Smart people that are very passionate about what they do and how the customers benefit from the work they do. It's a very collaborative environment, people want to hear your ideas on how to improve the customer experience. Qumulo's CS team complete changed the way Enterprise technical support it delivered, and continues to be best in show when it comes to support delivery

Cons

There was a history of high turnover in marketing prior to 2023, very often that impacted multi-department and company wide efforts.

Large territories, no contention on account ownership at their size.

Cons

Small company problems. Core product not as differentiated as they would think. Lots of selling around feature gaps. High churn.
