      Place full of opportunities

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      SolarWinds is a company full of opportunities. Over the past 3.5 years, I've had a chance to change roles 4 times which has enabled me to grow tremendously. Our management has put CARE values at the heart of the company strategy (unlimited PTO, enhanced health benefits, AMA with no filtered questions being some examples). I'm excited about where the company is heading product-wise, and I'm still confident that SolarWinds is a great place for me to grow my career

      Cons

      Like every company in the tech industry right now, SolarWinds is facing challenges. With the current economic environment, some of the teams are currently pretty bear bone right now. Also, the company has heavily invested on SolarWinds Observability and the product is not at par yet with other tools on the market. However, the product is evolving quickly and I'm confident about where it's heading thanks to our product leadership

      Working at Solarwinds

      Staff engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      1. People here very well understand work life balance. 2. Peers here help each other to ramp up without ridiculing. Since there are lot of products that are getting developed from scratch, you get to learn a lot of things. 3. I feel valued for the work that I do and the new ideas that come up with. 4. RSU offering is good, and with the potential that I see in the new products that are getting developed one can expect very good returns. 5. As till date work from home is encouraged.

      Cons

      1. There are discussions on having hybrid work like lot of other companies have started post covid. I feel this should not be the case, employees save a lot of time and money on transport, food and as they say "time is money" and "money saved is money earned". Collaboration should not be an issue with use of Teams and we being engineers should try to make our lives easy with use of technology. I feel biggest corporate social responsibility is to stop contributing to carbon emissions. 2. Connect between sales teams and engineers should be strengthend with frequent connects, I feels there are lot of feature that sales need to know from the products that are getting developed.
