Great benefits. Very nice office. Super gym.

Cons

Frequent changes in the IT Operations management made it hard to complete project work as well as day to day functions.

Informatica Response

Thank you for your review of Informatica. Our IT team is engaged in leading us through our digital transformation, so a certain amount of change is to be expected. Still, that team is one of our most stable, and was just recognized (for the 4th year in a row) as "One of the Top 100 Places to Work in IT" by Computerworld. We wish you well in your new role.

Business Outlook

Pros

Great location - On campus Gym, Showers, onsite cafe (not free or subsidized), game room with a pool table. Free electric charging station - Good to have if you have an electric vehicle. Farmer Market once a month - healthy options and convenient

Cons

High turnover in upper mgmt. - During my time there, CEO left and we went through 4 CIOs. Upper executives are unsure about the future and some even resort to apologizing for the bad financials. Lack of trust within department - Constant struggle with old management techniques. There's definitely favoritism happening.

Informatica Response

We appreciate you taking the time to share your thoughts about working with Informatica. We would point out that Informatica has been acknowledged by Computerworld as one of the 100 Best Companies to Work for in IT for the past two years in a row. Our previous CEO “left” by retiring after a long and illustrious career here. And we have regularly-scheduled All-Hands meetings for our senior leaders to brief everyone on our strategy and performance. We wish you well in your future endeavors.

Pros

1. People are genuinely nice and cooperative and director/senior management doesn't macro manage 2. New leadership has an open door policy and is trying to keep it honest 3. Less stress, option of working from home and no restriction in taking off days

Cons

1. New leadership is struggling to define a company perspective, if it's a 100% software product company or a company who wants to partner with their client in business strategy and become part of their journey in business success. 2. Different groups within the org. works in silos, big gap between sales, strategy and product development 3. There are people in the leadership who has very little clue about the ground reality and what the market is looking for
