Pros

Passionate staff, truly skilled field sales, good product vision, benefits, and corporate culture. Good base pay.

Cons

- Corporate culture does not translate beyond Seattle HQ. The CEO ultimate does not believe in the need for sales people, and that is directly reflected in the lack of incentives. - Product features hopelessly lagging behind. Feature velocity has completely stalled. Most sales have been relationship based. Lack of features does not pave the way for repeat business or a larger addressable market. - Cliquish and rife with nepotism. Corporate decision making regarding hiring and firing seems to belong in the Appalachians rather than Seattle. - The Executive staff, with a few exceptions, lacks experience in either storage industry or their role. In some cases, both.

Pros

Great co-workers: everybody I interact with is smart and easy to get along with. Everybody is obsessed with quality. Top notch working environment, fantastic espresso. Good work-life balance, with flexible hours and vacations.

Cons

As with any startup, I can't be certain I'll have a job next year, or that my stock options will ever be worth anything. I don't think C was the best language choice for the product.

Pros

Our Customers love us and we love our Customers! I work with a great team who care about the work they do and care about our Customers. I feel that my work adds value, is appreciated, and in sync with company goals There are many opportunities for me to take on interesting new work that has a tangible effect on the business. Customer experience is among the best in the industry. High quality product that makes our Customers' lives easier. Your career trajectory is totally up to you - you are in control and it's very empowering. Strong emphasis on Doing The Hard, Right Thing.

Cons

It can take time to get used to the Qumulo style. There's strong emphasis on being self-directed and finding the right things to work on; you won't necessarily be told what you should be working on which can make it difficult for some. Lots of hard work left to do - every day and that just means you have to wake up and be prepared. There can be lots of ambiguity as the business grows and faces new challenges, and that can be seen an opportunity for some, and as a shortcoming for others.
