      Pros

      Friendly and still competitive atmosphere Challenging work on very interesting products Intensive feedback from customers Career opportunities Competitive salary and bonuses

      Cons

      Communication between different offices gets difficult due to cultural differences and time zone gaps. Some employees need to work late night to support customers from US. Top management decisions are sometimes not very well explained, which creates mixed opinions about them. Investors do not really appreciate the heading of the company which affects the stock price.

      Pros

      Company appears to be on a good trajectory and is well managed. CEO does good job of communicating vision of company. Nice cash bonuses.

      Cons

      Very short-term, tactically focused. What have you done for me lately attitude. No opportunity for wealth creation through stock program. If you were not part of the pre-IPO then you don't really have a chance to share the wealth. Have been bringing in a lot of external management that have not panned out.

      Pros

      The commission rocks here and my monthly take home pay is on average EUR1000 more than other companies. In my view Solarwinds is the best sales job in Cork. Not saying it's an easy gig but this is the New York of Inside Sales and the place you gotta prove yourself in if you want to be the best. Company gym. Free soft drinks, confectionary, hot beverages and yoghurts. Free lunch Wednesdays. Free coffee Friday. Cash spiffs. Subsidized cinema tickets. Nice location/office/business park. Sound management and work colleagues... the people here really make Solarwinds! They know how to celebrate, and company nights out involve plenty of drink vouchers.

      Cons

      Even though all good sales people get a buzz from being outside their comfort zone, sometimes there's a tendency by management here to try to speed up the sales cycle when a considered approach might work better in some cases. That said they give very honest feedback and you learn quickly in this environment!
