Pros

It is rare to find a company who believes their mission statement and actively works towards it. They empower their employees, value the company culture AND has a great product to take to market. AppDynamics enables employees to be better than they thought they could be by encouraging team work, collaboration, personal development and integrity.

Cons

Young company so minor administration processes need to be confirmed, however, this also enables employees to have a greater say in how certain procedures would work best for them.

Pros

Innovative product, technically deep with lots of interesting problems to solve, great team, amazing culture, committed excited people. Disrupting a big market. As an engineer, we work on everything from highly scalable servers and big data to low level systems programming and virtual machine internals to intuitive user interfaces.

Cons

Eat too much of the free food and you could get fat.

Pros

People, the customers, and the product.

Cons

The SVP is too Lesa-fair and is managing through osmosis. No leadership or policies set for the Geo Reps. Treats us as wolves after prey which has caused ill sediment in the Sales Force..
