Pros

This is the best place to work. You must make your way into Splunk! Please bookmark this review so that other good reviews don't pile onto this one and share the link with your friends. Pros are as follow: Generous with bonuses and RSU: Bonuses are given out every quarter and another bigger chunk of bonus at the end of fiscal year Extremely friendly environment: Parties for almost all occasions and events Extremely generous with spot bonuses: High motivation to get things done goes along well with more bonuses Extremely well with retention: This is a place that has a very low attrition rate Liberal with promotion: Just like what the people from HR will tell you - always talk to your manager. That is so true! Just make sure that you constantly talk to your manager about your goals. Extremely well balanced work-life workplace: Don’t worry about working long hours because it’s all about work-life balance. You can expect a laid-back environment here. Extremely passionate leadership

Pros

Good stock compensation for early employees, good core product, good name SF, good benefits

Cons

Incompetent HR, promotions about who you know, people are hired often who are not great fits but connected. Lack of development for management. Working with recruiting team on hiring for my team was a joke. Engineering community reminds me of a frat house at times. I feel Splunk could have a discrimination lawsuit coming any day based on hiring practices and what is "acceptable". Senior engineers don't have a place here.
