Pluspunten

Good package is offered with Stock options

Minpunten

However, you are not set up for success. Meeting targets is almost always impossible. Management has no interest in the customer success unless the customer is large. Weekly targets. Product is not at all easy to sell unless you have the right customers. Customers can choose to simply stop using Confluent. Technology is not critical to their business and Open source is very good too. Lots of competition with more affordable prices. Management has no vision or consistency of strategies. Hire and fire policy. 100% focus on sell sell sell. No patience for customer readiness. They are absolutely tight-fisted about any additional costs. Dont expect any travel / hotel stays / taxi bills getting approved. They want sales without any costs. :-)

Pluspunten

- Remote Work - Great flexibility with working from other locations - Unlimited PTO - Competitive compensation - Great health benefits - Autonomy to choose your projects and work, minimal micro-management

Minpunten

- No 401K match (IBM does have some retirement contributions) - My org was very unstable and there was lots of restructuring / silent lay-offs/ firings that kept happening all year round. Constant pressure to perform - Very few people were driven and motivated. Many were simple coasting - IBM Acquisition is going to ruin the culture. Young, hip Mountain View tech company getting acquired by large legacy consulting company is a big cultural mismatch. Huge round of layoffs already done, expect more. Lot of voluntary exists since the acquisition announcement. Most people are not motivated enough anymore to work since pay, benefits, culture all will be eroded because of the acquisition. Not a lot of clarity on how the org will continue. Current leadership will not stay for long - Some of the senior leaders were un-inspirational and lack-lustre
