Pros

The work environment is great. The management team is transparent and accessible with all employees. I am given opportunities for training and growth. I get to do things here I would never get to do in larger companies. My manager listens, which is not as common as it should be. The culture is better than any place I've worked before. Feels like we're all in this together to make good things happen.

Cons

Inter-departmental communication could be better. This is a fast-paced environment, so not for people who are just earning a paycheck.

Pros

The Zenoss culture is supportive and collaborative. If you are a software development primadonna, look elsewhere. We all work together to create the best IT monitoring software on earth. And like a great team, we celebrate each other's achievements. We work together and win together on a GCP cloud stack with Docker containers, microservices, MongoDB, Firestore, GraphQL apis feeding a VueJS front-end. Flexible work schedule, work from home options, and a management team that keeps it real. You are informed of top-level decisions and why they were made. Every C-Level executive has an open door policy if you ever want to chat. The structure top-to-bottom is hands-down industry best practice. Zenoss is worth your time to check out.

Cons

It used to be no stay-at-home option, but that is gone now.

Pros

Amazing, passionate technical talent -- the staff that remain at Zenoss are incredibly bright

Cons

- No dedicated sales leader and only a couple of sales reps left on the sales team, so no new sales - Whatever is happening in marketing isn't working, so no new sales - There's no product management, so engineering is busy developing features with very little input from or regard for what customers actually want/need - Customer support, success, services, and operations teams keep getting hit with layoffs due to floundering new sales while marketing org inexplicably remains mostly untouched (except for losing a backfill after someone left) - At this point the only value left in the company is their existing book of business and they're working to destroy that by crippling the teams that keep those customers renewing
