Pros

The company has $$$ and is not afraid to use it Much of management is supportive of career goals Very cool projects and the funding to execute

Cons

Too much political turbulence since the merger. The merger was already super disruptive to both companies — but then they booted the Cloudera CEO, many folks left, including founders, ICahn investment, etc. I do have some faith in the new CEO. However, he needs to right the ship quickly and clearly. The chaos has become too distracting for the employees and the uncertainty causes great employees to leave, which causes further chaos. This makes it unnecessarily hard to complete important projects. We’ve had some projects change hands quite a few times due to folks leaving. Lots of thrash. It’s one thing to announce a change, it’s another to announce a change with useful specifics so employees know what to expect and don’t feel like they may as well jump ship due to uncertainty. No one is asking for perfection, but we are asking for transparency so we can know what to expect.
