Inept CEO can't figure out Cloud and Big Data strategy - werkgeversreview Anonieme werknemer bij Informatica

We regret that you had a bad experience working at Informatica. Your criticism, however, does not match the facts. Rather than being “manhandled” in Big Data, we have been leading the industry. Our Big Data Management Platform v. 10.1, with its introduction of the Intelligent Data Lake, has won high praise from analysts and customers alike. As for the Cloud, in Gartner’s 2016 “Magic Quadrant for Enterprise Integration Platform as a Service, Worldwide,” the leading analyst firm positioned Informatica as a “Leader” for our “ability to execute and completeness of vision” for the third straight year. Not only has Informatica been positioned as a Leader for iPaaS, but we have also been recognized as a Leader in the Magic Quadrants for Data Integration Tools and Master Data Management by Gartner. It is true we have had a lot change in the past twelve months, but that is characteristic of a dynamic industry such as ours. To help our employees manage the transformation better, our Learning & Development team created an entire curriculum around coping with change available online at no cost. As for career advancement, we have placed renewed emphasis on developing goals and working with managers on a regular basis (rather than only at annual review meetings) to monitor performance and identify opportunities for our people to develop. It is unfortunate that you did not enjoy our environment, but – according to our Glassdoor ratings – the vast majority of our employees around the world do (4 out of 5 stars overall). We hope you have found a workplace that is a better fit for you.
