Pros

Solid product with strong legacy and varied use cases. Sound development and technical Security Analytics team strengths. Flexible work arrangement with decent benefits.

Cons

It's very sad to see many decent people leave Splunk after investing many years of their expertise in the company. New management are being allowed to clear the decks and bring their own box-movers and yes-employees that don't question any decisions.

All aboard the gravy train

Pros

Good Product, some genuine smart people. Good benefits

Cons

Many are on the gravy train and will do anything to protect their positions. Be wary of incompetent lazy management doing as little as possible. They will be the first to sacrifice you in order to keep their RSUs and maintain relations with the boys club. They claim to have built a culture when the reality is they have imported one from elsewhere, with many existing relationships over a decade. They are so far behind in process and practice, they can only be described as a bodyshop. As others here have said, as long as the growth and numbers keep rising, the core group will be protected and given free reign to do as they please.

Pros

Great technology, amazing talent, work life balance is good

Cons

Culture is not great in ANZ, seems to have built a reputation in the market about this, especially in ANZ. Management needs to pay more attention to put words into action.
