Business Outlook
Pros
Beautiful office on a nice campus (on-site gym, Starbucks and cafe). Company provided lunch twice weekly. Lots of snacks and drinks. I was compensated well for the work I did.
Cons
Total lack of company values. The attrition rate at SolarWinds is insane. People come and go at an unheard of pace. There is no guiding principle in hiring people, and the true culture is a culture of "get downloads" (the company's driving business metric). Once people come in the door and see how crazy the download hyper focus is, they leave quickly. The organization is restructured nearly every quarter, which is a complete distraction. The CEO is nuts and the company problems stem from the top. This place is highly dysfunctional.
