Pros

Good snacks and coffee, nice modern office and the option to work from home is a plus. Downtown office location is pretty sweet.

Cons

Toxic bully managers abound and aren't kept in check by upper management, who seems only concerned with the bottom line. Although the company values say that the work culture is connected and enlightened, it is actually more often run by fear and shaming others if they speak up about maltreatment by managers. Women and minorities face multiple obstacles to promotion and end up leaving the company to pursue other jobs.

Thank you for your post. I am new to the New Relic family, an organization I already love after only a few weeks, and I'm disheartened to hear of your experience. As our CEO Lew Cirne shared in an open letter regarding diversity and inclusion, “Our commitment to being bold, passionate, authentic, accountable, and connected is what makes us a different kind of company. These are our values. These are what make us Relics. No matter who you are—your background, race, gender, religion or sexual orientation—you are here to help us achieve our mission. You are important. You have a voice.” We want you to feel safe and empowered to do your best work here. In order to act on this feedback, which I want to do, I need to know more. Please do come find me directly to discuss - my door is open. Please let me know how I can support you.

Pros

- Compared to other companies I've worked at, I'm surround by really bright and hard working colleagues. - Great product to sell and seems to be really well received and valued by buyers - The company feels much more mature and grown up (in a good way) compared to a lot of other "start ups" in the City. - Compensation seems to be at the higher end of the market.

Cons

I think a lot of the challenges that surfaced in earlier reviews have been addressed, particularly in regards to the changes that come with going public and shifting of leadership. That said, despite some big efforts to centralize information w/ products like Jive, there's still a long way to go in terms of moving institutional knowledge out of people's heads and into a more readily accessible resource.

Cons

- Could be better at helping stitch together the various functions (Product, Marketing, Sales, Operations, Eng etc).
