Pros

New Relic use to be where everyone was trying to work. Management and executives 2 years ago were top notch. I truly enjoyed everything from the position that were offered to the cultural.

Cons

Things have drastically changed. New Relic use to be cool an amazing but it's just not anymore. They've brought in some new executives that changed this place for the wrong. Sad to see all the vets of the company have left.

Pros

+Great CMO +Open to many suggestions +Many friendly people who do too much group speak +Technology is world class +Great coffee bar.

Cons

+Excellent people are leaving. Big loss for New Relic. +Exec disagreements or execs not on the same page. Many interdepartmental conflicts which impacts overall culture and slows sales. +Lots of nepotism--friends of execs who are in critical roles with no experience or individuals specifically selected by execs who have been fast tracked but provide no value. +Clicks, mean girl behavior (not necessarily girls). Demoralizing the company. +Poor management (many managers who were promoted internally are inexperienced) +Culture clash between Portland and SF +Pay too low and very stingy with stock options +Too slow to hire to fill gaps

Must place to work!

Pros

Awesome place to work. Still has the start-up culture. I found it quite easy to work, experiment on my projects and coordinate with rest of the teams.

Cons

I can't think of any. May be the only draw back is that it is located in San Francisco. Most of the employees travel long distances to reach the office. But this is not a typical con. On the brighter side the office is at a beautiful location, facing the bay bridge.
