Pros

Great work environment and "technically" smart people. Everyone is easy to talk to at the surface level and willing to help. They care about every employee's well being and happiness. Healthy use of scrum and kanban at the team level means there are lots of opportunities to learn new things.

Cons

Too bad caring doesn't always translate into success. Management, I don't want to call them leadership, is seriously confused and unfortunately in-experienced in scaling an organization or moving past the basics of what it means to be Agile. For a start-up I felt spoiled working here and the amount of money wasted on non-value add crap and perks (while I loved them) was kind of scary and irresponsible at the same time. The people are smart but with it comes a hubris and also general fear of failure that has hindered the company from taking meaningful risks or recognizing and quickly adapting to failures at all levels of the company.

Pros

-Qumulo is providing myself, as well as many others, the opportunity to jumpstart my career and gain a considerable amount of knowledge/experience that I just wouldn't get anywhere else. If you prove to them that you are an asset, bigger opportunities open up. But you have to seize it...nothing is just handed to you. For someone like me, this is really important because I feel like the company has a plan for me and actually sees me as an asset. -Great benefits across the board. Unlimited PTO! -Free lunches and in office happy hours every Friday. -Great company parties! -The kindest, most unselfish culture you can imagine. -Great Team Environment. -Great work/life balance across the company (typically 9 to 5). -Overall culture. -The most available, transparent leadership a company could have. I actually believe that they will do whats best for the company/employees. Never really had that at my previous job(s).

Cons

For me, the cons are the same that one would find at any startup: -Things are constantly changing and one needs to be adaptable. -Some might consider this a con (I consider it a challenge, opportunity), there are many plans that have yet to be in place.

Pros

Great market opportunity and strongly differentiated product. Impressive founders. Huge growth. Great culture (transparent, data driven, no jerks). Great benefits and good comp. Really fun place to work. Incredibly intelligent people. Awesome events. Great offices. Nice gear. Amazing coffee!!!!

Cons

Storage isn't easy. If you don't know it already, youll need to spend time learning how storage works from both a technology and a business standpoint. Very committed to agile (especially scrum and Kanban). Mostly great, but can be a transition for people from different methodologies.
