Pros

Haven't scared off all the good people from engineering, yet. Able to hold onto the shreds of the good agile engineering culture, despite 'under new management' problems. Genuinely good people who care about their customers.

Cons

New CTO thinks he's Steve Jobs, but only has the nasty demanding attitude and none of the visionary genius. Negative 10 EQ. Chief Customer officer seems competent, shame he can't reign in his peer. Fired half the women in engineering in June 2022 and the numbers were already below industry average. Don't expect it to be a place where DE&I matter.

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.

Pros

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.
