Pros

There are a lot of smart and creative people in the company. Everyone challenges each other in a positive way. There is plenty of market opportunity in a vibrant segment, and Dynatrace is well set up to compete and win. The products are well-funded, and there is an emphasis on innovation for products as well as other business processes. There is no fear of change, and the organization behaves in a "flat" model, providing access to people throughout the company.

Cons

It's not a company for someone looking for a steady state environment. There was a lot of change during the split from Compuware, and there is a lot more change on the horizon from a product and go-to-market perspective. It's also a place where you need to be comfortable with a distributed team, including major offices across the globe and virtual employees.

Pros

Revolutionary products that have the capability of changing the standard way an application is developed and monitored Patents protect core functionality that keep competition to a minimal Lab is full of industry experts who are passionate about what they build Private equity has provided a shield from concerns around tech bubble Main competition lacks full SDLC integration which lead to a high win rate Entry level positions offer quick career acceleration opportunities

Cons

Big discrepancy between Boston (HQ) and Lab (Austria + Poland) on what products value proposition is. This can be validated by the recent push to a "DPM" model as opposed to what customers/lab is developing for (improve SDLC) Although many positive changes were made once the company went private, many legacy senior managers still remain in place. These individuals are keeping certain aspects of the company of maturing, and have a track record of negatively impacting the organizations they lead No equity opportunity for top performers outside of a one time purchasing option that was riddled with issues and questions Compensation is towards the low to mid-level for similar organizations Performers appear to not be valued, failures appear to have no repercussions Only a handful of senior leadership is seen as beneficial to bring into client meetings Many questions exist on what the future makeup of the company is due to recent announcements of the converged product line

Great Technology - Horrible leadership

Pros

Office is very nice, as are the benefits. There are a few people here that really care about making this a great company. Technology was top notch.

Cons

CEO is simply out of touch. Out of touch with employees, customers and the market. Sr. leadership is not empowered to make any changes without proper blessing and concerns from the feet on the street go unheard. If they were still public, I'd be shorting this stock.
