Pros

Good pay, benefits. Still entirely Remote (no promises now that Cisco bought it)

Cons

Top executives don't understand how their decisions affect the rank and file (ex. last round of layoffs was spread out over a two month period. wtf?) Teams are siloed.

For this role spacifically, commission is capped so that's a bit of a bummer but the good thing is there are always Spiffs to go over the cap

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Lack of definitive direction with Cisco and old and outdated game plan.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