Pros

Nice people, reasonable expectations of employees, some product differentiation. There was a group of small scrappy startup people here but it's all but gone.

Cons

A microcosm of recent times between VCs and Startups. Cheap money and ignorant investors throwing terms sheets at anything that moves creates lots of opportunity but little value. *Allegedly raised ~$80M. Lack of Leadership and Vision company wide, top down. CEO is absent from steering product, culture, vision, departments you name it he's overwhelmed by just handling the board. Might as well be the man behind the curtain, heard from but never seen. One-dimensional sales motion; HYCU's only repeatable path to market is riding Nutanix coattails. Despite attempts to break out of this box they haven't figured out another successful and repeatable go to market strategy. Putting too many eggs in the "Cloud is our North Star" strategy. Learning hard truths that the Big 3 and their Partner EcoSystem don't need them at all, not one iota.

Pros

Leadership is accessible, open to feedback, and is invested in helping you be successful. Technology, is sophisticated and solves many probelms our customers are faced with. The fast-paced environment allows individuals to make a real impact, and there’s alignment with key strategic partners as our go-to-market approach evolves.

Cons

The internal systems and processes are still a work in progress, which can sometimes slow things down or create inefficiencies. As the company scales, there are definitely growing pains. It’s also a very self-directed environment, so it may not be the best fit for someone who needs a lot of structure or hand-holding.
