Pros

Product: many many large companies have no idea what they would do without the ability to search through their data using Splunk People: I've met some of the brightest people while at Splunk. I've really appreciated growing with them. The comp packages attract some of the most strategic thinkers. Comp: one of the highest paying tech companies in the bay area Culture: Splunkers have some of the best dad jokes I've ever seen. If you don't have a sense of humor, its going to be a rough time.

Cons

Typical large org politics at times. Lots of migration work to make sure we are a cloud first company brings large challenges.

Pros

Nice office with lots of snacks and great meals a few times a week.

Cons

Feels like a country club, you're either in the club or you're a nobody. Agile used as a micro-management tool to intimidate engineers.
