Great product, sales culture lacking

Pros

Great technology that competitors wish they could be.

Cons

The culture has changed. Funny when new management comes in, and there’s been many, they always say “we came for the culture and people”. That’s is complete BS, because it’s the first thing they changed. Moral is low in the sales teams. Leadership is not trusted and there have been many bad product and go to market decisions.

Pros

I wish I could say something positive about my experience with Splunk but it seems that the only thing this company has going for it is the legacy customers they're managing to hold onto. And frankly, I have no idea how they're even managing that.

Cons

The leadership at Splunk is a textbook example of incompetence. I've never seen a more disconnected and disorganized group of people who seem to have no idea what it takes to run a successful business in today's world. It's like watching a ship sink in slow motion, and everyone on board is just bailing water with teaspoons. The management team fares no better. They are utterly terrible at executing projects and seem to lack even basic understanding of the concept of teamwork. It's a wonder how they managed to get into their positions in the first place. The company culture is plagued with finger-pointing and blame games, making it impossible for employees to feel supported and motivated. When it comes to modernizing the product, Splunk is stuck in the dark ages. Despite the rapidly evolving technological landscape, the company refuses to adapt or innovate. Their product is outdated, cumbersome, and can't keep up with the demands of today's market. They've had countless opportunities to evolve and improve, but each time they've stubbornly clung to their antiquated ways.

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
