Pros

Splunk used to be a great company to work. Agile, innovative, fun, great leadership - we're not that company anymore. Only other pro is our new building - it's pretty sweet.

Cons

Toxic leadership - especially within my engineering org. Poor decision making at the senior executive level. I don't feel like my manager or team lead has my best, or the company's best interest in mind - it seems a lot of the decisions are ego driven. Salaries aren't competitive in engineering either - most people are just staying until their fully vested. Perks could be improved - no cafeteria, gym, 401k etc --- Splunk will surely start to lose talent soon.
