Pros

Expensive workplaces- modern offices, and lunch brought in (so you don't go out)

Cons

Management does not care about their teams. Will soon turn into a "churn and burn" shop if managers aren't removed. No thought given to real teamwork, no thought given to the real reason they're there: the customers. No one I knew actually LIKED working there.

Pros

Zero. Since you will see the same in any other company.

Cons

I wouldn`t believe in all "Good Reviews" written below here. if you want to hear honest feedback talk to former Solarwinds employees, I don`t think that you will hear at even a few good things about them. They will also tell you about some accidents happened in their office which is a result of company behavior and culture. All mid-management doesn`t have any experience in IT outside Solarwinds. Basically Solarwinds is the only thing they know. If you have any experience in IT this is not place for you. Some managers and even high level management are very childish and will do anything to get rid of you if they don`t like you personally. Reacting as a 12 year old child. The reason why they are taking those positions is because they are playing politics and say only what their management want to hear. And because they are acting as a robots and not even thinking what they are doing and why, they don`t have their own opinion, absolutely useless. You will not see there a true individuals. No team work at all. In fact i don`t think they know what is that. If it is your first place of work then it might be good for you. But don`t stay there for too long and look for another opportunities as soon as possible and leave them with their culture.

Pros

free lunch every Friday. free break fast twice a month

Cons

This company is lack of proper training. There are so many products in the portfolio and you basically need to learn them all by yourself.
