Pros

Humble employees all the way from the CEO, Co-Founders to the brilliant engineers, Legal, HR and more... Company is constantly thinking up new ways to reward their employees Executives preach "win together, lose together" and "Do the right thing" No set work schedules, work smarter not harder. Some positions have opportunities to WFH Encouraged to take risks and be creative Employees like to hang out together after work Employees are passionate about the Splunk product and how it can help customers Open and transparent work culture Free food, drinks, snacks, kegerators, video machines, flat screen TV Still has a start up feel Growing fast Product solves a real world business problem

Cons

salary and bonus are not that competitive vacation time isn't generous or competitive to other hot companies (but I do get the option to work remotely when needed).

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Lack of definitive direction with Cisco and old and outdated game plan.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
