Pros

Fantastic, positive culture. Opportunity to join a superstar, rapidly growing company. Great opportunities for advancement.

Cons

I honestly can't think of any, unless you don't want to move to any of their office locations. However, Cloudera does have many remote offices, and the company is steadily opening new offices throughout the US and worldwide.

Pros

You will learn a lot working at Cloudera. This is a great company to have on your resume.

Cons

A lot... Home offices (San Francisco & Palo Alto) are really the only employees that enjoy and benefit from the company perks. Other offices do not receive free lunches or company sponsored parties. In addition they will not allow you fly in to participate. "Legacy" employees - anyone over or close to three years are hard to work with or complain about. It can be hard to grow if you're not in sales. Company moral seems to be low, and disorganized.

Pros

Exciting technology, very interesting projects spanning many industries and applications, and a great team, knowledgeable and enthusiastic about the tech and the business. Cloudera enables and participates in interesting and demanding projects, many of which are out of reach using traditional data processing systems. The company is growing and has a very open and empowering culture with a strong "can do" attitude, which is a lot of fun to be part of.

Cons

There is _a lot_ of interest in Cloudera's tech, so a fair amount of time management and prioritisation is required: pace and scope are quite high, but rewardingly so, and we work hard to deliver best-in-class solutions to our customers. Me, I like being busy :)
