Splunk: I used to love you...

Pros

Splunk used to be great to work for, it was innovative, disruptive and fun. Catered lunches and breakfasts were great. Snacks and stocked kitchens and everything in between. Old brick building was cool. There was opportunity to grow at first but things took a turn really fast. Salaries and compensation were competitive.

Cons

Very political, toxic environment. Only a select few get to grow within the company and are allowed to expand their horizons, others are kept down or even stabbed in the back. Favoritism played a big role in promotions. I wish things had been different.

Pros

Splunk used to be a great company to work. Agile, innovative, fun, great leadership - we're not that company anymore. Only other pro is our new building - it's pretty sweet.

Cons

Toxic leadership - especially within my engineering org. Poor decision making at the senior executive level. I don't feel like my manager or team lead has my best, or the company's best interest in mind - it seems a lot of the decisions are ego driven. Salaries aren't competitive in engineering either - most people are just staying until their fully vested. Perks could be improved - no cafeteria, gym, 401k etc --- Splunk will surely start to lose talent soon.
