Pros

High growth, smart people and a company that is at the top of its market

Cons

Some of the VPs have questionable ethics, agreeing to bring on people but then cutting their employment right before their start date after the have already given notice to their former employer because someone "new" came in the front door.

Pros

Great compensation and time off. No micromanagement. Great product that's known for its strength and solid brand

Cons

Lack of definitive direction with Cisco and old and outdated game plan. Competitors have caught up and sometimes surpassed Splunk leaving Splunkers looking for a new strategy; very small territories, incompetent hires in some management roles
