Pros

Great overall atmosphere Good salary and benefits Great products Focus on work-life balance Company is growing well Lots of nice colleagues

Cons

Focus to push the whole U.K. team forward (promotions, benefits, privileges) but not much is done for Business Development Managers in other territories. Management is overall nice but doesn't see/care that there is unequal treatment. Big gap between actual generated revenue for the company in the U.K territory and bad quality pipeline that is being generated and rewarded in Dublin. Unclear if you will ever going to progress with a BDM role in Dublin so if you are just looking for ways to earn your money doing the same thing constantly this is your place. Every single BDM in that team is still in the same position regardless of years passing, no one progressed into a different role. Just to give a different perspective to what HR is communicating here

We are glad that you enjoyed the atmosphere, your colleagues, our rewards and products, and the work/life balance. We regret that you were frustrated by the career development opportunities here. There are several examples of BDMs from the Dublin office being promoted recently to opportunities with inside and field sales. Some of these allowed people from other European countries to repatriate to their homelands in their new positions. We are also adding opportunities in Customer Success, which has an affinity to Business Development. Overall, our Dublin office is projected to grow significantly in the next few years, so there will be more opportunities to advance there. Which may explain why our employees in Dublin rate Informatica 4.1 overall on Glassdoor, and rate our management a 4.1 as well. We wish you well in your future endeavours.

Pros

Great culture! Everyone is on board to help realize the company mission - make our customers successful by helping them harness the power of their data! Great management, supportive and always helpful peers across the globe, comp and benefits at par with the best. I haven't worked at the company HQ or offices so can't say much about that.

Cons

None! I try not to look for things to complain as that is an addictive mindset and appreciate all the amazing things at this company!

Pros

You get unlimited PTO (with stipulations). You do work with some very smart people in other departments. If you want to learn a lot about sales and are just starting your career this can be a good place.

Cons

There doesn't seem to be much direction on the team. Team morale fluctuates a lot and at times is very poor. There was a career path but after the inside sales team was let go it's become tough to move up. The BDM team falls under the marketing department which seems weird since most want to go into sales. The team needs more senior leadership in Austin.

We appreciate your feedback and value your advice. Moving to become the leading Enterprise Cloud Data Management company has had some changes and disruptions. But we believe we now have a very clear direction, articulated fully during Informatica World 2017 last week. There are several examples where our Business Development Managers have progressed to field sales. Our customer success initiatives are expanding significantly as well, and new roles for customer success management afford you yet another path for your career. You can visit the Internal Career Center on the Okta SSO page where you can view opportunities for advancement within Informatica. If you’d like additional career guidance, please contact your HR Business Partner to discuss. Thank you once again and best wishes for a successful career with us.
