Pros

The company is great to work for and the offer some great software and solution packages. The majority of the people I worked with are great and very smart people. Great compensation and benefits do the Sales positions. An active company where you can learn a lot.

Cons

Be careful who you work for as you can be screwed very quickly. Trying to hard to make a new software or solution packages while letting the existing one suffer. Who you know matters over experience or turn work habits.

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Lack of definitive direction with Cisco and old and outdated game plan.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