Pros
I stayed as long as I had because of the people and the mission to do our best work. It was one of the most motivating environments. Sadly this changed with numerous execs changes. I am thankful I experienced New Relic for the company Lew Cirne strived to build. It was truly a remarkable organization with employees that cared about each other, therefore cared about the company’s success. This is no longer the case.
Cons
Constantly changing strategy and the culture and “core values” are no longer important to execs. The recent layoff caught those effected completely blindsided and Relics learned of their fate by receiving an invitation subject line “Transition From New Relic”. So dehumanizing, especially after “Relic Recharge Week” - truly unethical and definitely not the same company I joined.
