Pros

- Not a lot of pressure to deliver things. - Slow paced (is this even an advantage?) - Free breakfast

Cons

- Slowly taking away benefits away from employees that were given as perks 2/3 years ago (no paid conventions, no paid formations, no innovation days) - Very difficult to get a raise, even if you work your ass off (there is now a minimum amount of time that you need to be working in a certain position to get a raise, even if you are constantly proving your value) - Below average salary, even though they brag about excellent results and YoY returns every month and how they are pleased with our work - A lot of attrition (good people are leaving in favour of other companies that value their employees more)

Thank you for your feedback. We strive to create attractive, market-competitive rewards packages giving employees the opportunity to share in on the growth and long-term financial success of Dynatrace. There is a globally aligned compensation process providing multiple opportunities throughout the year to get a raise. We encourage you to reach out to your manager if you find these opportunities missing and address your growth goals in your career development plan with them. We foster a people-first culture, and employee appreciation and well-being initiatives are continuously being implemented across the globe. These include flexible work models, company-designated paid Wellness Days, free mental health consultations, meal contributions, sports and social offerings, and much more. When it comes to learning and growing, you can take advantage of career development resources next to conference and meet-up attendances such as training and education support or free Udemy business access just to name a few. You’ll also see us attend conferences across Europe this year including WeAreDevelopers or KubeCon, so make sure to explore the programs at your lab that make this possible. With a lot of changes in our ways of work in the last years, the format of our Innovation Days has changed to a hybrid one, which only takes place once a year but allows teams globally to join—we understand that it’s the-more-the-merrier with events like these but we’ve seen this new format well-received and are already looking forward to the next one. Also, innovation work is not only allowed but encouraged beyond events like our Innovation days—just talk to your manager to get this planned in. We hope to have addressed your concerns. It’s our aim to create an outstanding employee experience and invest in our people and their career with us for the long run. We’ve passed your feedback on to your local leadership and our People & Culture leads, and would also like to encourage you to talk to your manager directly to open a dialogue and talk about the individual topics raised.

Pros

Decent Product Great Perks Co-Workers

Cons

A lot of what happens to your career is beyond your control. You can be a top performer and still only meet satisfied in remarks. The customer success departments went through some changes earlier this year and it left it splintered. A lot of toxic environments take place in pockets and everyone is cliqued up. I suppose you could say this is like every corporation, but this was junior varsity level office politics. If you made someone upset you could be next. Most of the executive leadership and brings in their buddies who have no idea how the product works and all of the veterans have left by now. It's mostly a game of grab behind and brown nosing.
