Pros

Dynatrace used to be the most amazing place to work. The culture, the people, the leadership...amazing.

Cons

Then, Steve Pace, CRO, resigned last year. Since then, the new CRO, Dan Zeigler, has come in from VMWare and has systematically fired everyone below him, replaced with VMWare cronies. Those replacements, fired everyone below them and replaced with VMWare buddies. This has gone on all up and down the entire US org. It has turned into a full out good ole buddies club of the VMWare guys and the legacy Dynatracers. The animosity that the new VMWare people have for the originals is so obvious (like sales leaders STILL wearing VMWare shirts on team calls) that HR has noted they have issues with this monstrous cultural shift. It has been a systematic cleansing of the pre-VMWare regime Dynatracers - just look at the turnover in the last 3 months of the US team

Pros

The recruiters and R & D teams are genuinely nice people.

Cons

Management and Higher Ups could care less about you. I was offered a position, agreed to terms and signed. Agreed to start a month later due to prior engagements, only for offer to be rescinded 2 days before my start date for vague reasons regarding budget cuts (which were discussed in interviews, as they said they are in a growth period and just received new funding). This was all after I underwent extremely lengthy onboarding process, background check, started relocation process without being reimbursed, introduced myself to entire team, only for it all to be taken away 2 days before I started. Don't believe the hype, they don't care about you. You'll be viewed as just another cog in a machine, rather than a valued employee.

We regret this situation. It is not reflective of the culture at Dynatrace, which remains a growth environment. We take our hiring process very seriously. When mistakes happen, we work to remediate them. If you have not done so already, please contact your recruiter with any questions about the hiring process.

Pros

-Work from home -Good executive leadership -Cool product -Company is growing

Cons

-Low salaries compared to industry (I have seen conflicting information here on glassdoor regarding the pay at dynatrace insights but I can CONFIRM that the salary is significantly lower than industry. Just do some googling on dynatrace insights salaries and Dynatrace competitor salaries and you will find what I am talking about) -There is no bonus structure on this team for ANY position and after leaving this company for a similar position at a competitor I was given a much higher salary and now also a quarterly bonus -Difficult to learn the insights jobs as the dynatrace tools are very technical and complex -Multiple dynatrace certifications required to get and maintain your job
