Pros

Basics such as coffee, soda pop, candy, snacks, break room, big screen television, pool table, shuffleboard, chairs, tables.

Cons

There are no leaders. With few exceptions, department level management is insular, arrogant, offensive, vapid, mendacious, and juvenile. Middle management turnover is too fast to evaluate. Upper management has no authority; they merely implement edicts. C-level players are concerned only about stock price. The corporate model is “More, Faster.” No organic growth. Industry awards rotate according to board seats occupied by C-level. For insight, find all, then sort by Ratings in reverse order.

Pros

Despite my efforts, I couldn't identify any positive aspects worth mentioning.

Cons

The level of frugality, lack of professionalism, and unfair treatment towards all sellers at SolarWinds is profoundly disheartening. The company has made the decision to burden sellers by increasing their targets significantly, a move that does not extend to managers, seemingly motivated by cost-cutting measures. We are simply work for free!
