Pros

Comprehensive data management product portfolio Big brand customers are managing high volumes and variety of data Above average compensation Unlimited vacation policy Many nice people in the ranks

Cons

Inward focused leadership Unclear strategy Inconsistent investment in potentially disruptive parts of the product portfolio Underfunded marketing organization Offshore hiring strategy creates a heavy burden in North America to get things done with increasingly limited resources Heavy variability in bonus plan No stock options given PE ownership Lack of resources makes it nearly impossible to take advantage of the vacation policy Health benefits continue to degrade post acquisition

Informatica Response

We’re sorry you had a negative experience with Informatica. Naturally, we take issue with your characterization of the Company and the opportunities we offer. We would point out that nearly 80% of employees would recommend Informatica to their friends as a place to work (more than many of our competitors), 83% approve of our CEO, and most approve of our business direction. Analysts rate us a leader for innovation and customer satisfaction. Glassdoor also recently rated Informatica as one of the top 25 employers for compensation in our industry. So the reality here isn’t at all as bleak as you portray. We wish you well in your future career endeavors.
