Pros

- Visibility and Alignment: In-depth analysis of SolarWinds strategies and business plans between All Hands and Ask Me Anything sessions that are hosted globally and functionally each quarter to ensure all departments and employees are aligned on our corporate goals - Access to Leadership: Leaders are very approachable and easy to talk to. The executive leadership teams operates with an open-door policy to encourage employees to come to them with concerns, questions, and suggestions - Comprehensive and wholistic total rewards offerings: Solid compensation plan, medical, dental, vision, and mental health benefits - Awesome perks: education tuition reimbursement, flexible time off (basically unlimited), sabbatical leave for employees with 5 years of service, 401K matching, donation matching - Great Co-Workers: The People at SolarWinds are friendly and helpful, making work a lot easier - People-First Culture: The workspace is very accommodating and stocked with snacks and beverages daily, with lunch catered each week. Employees can also take advantage of the daily restaurant lunch drops - Flexible Work: Employees are expected to be in office three days a week but the policy is not strict and managers practice implicit trust to support flexible and hybrid work

Cons

- There is a lot of change going on at SolarWinds and most are still adapting to all the change management, the same thing most tech companies are facing - It can feel like teams are siloed and occasionally there is confusion on project or job responsibilities between colleagues

Culture Shock

Recommend

Pros

All I can say is what a culture shock! My previous company was the poster child for toxic sales culture. But this place is far from that. Leadership is supportive and challenges us to drive the number in a way that makes it fun to be in sales.

Cons

Every company has some policies that people aren't fans of and this one is no different. But the work culture makes them more palatable.
