Avantages

I was paid regulary and benefits were reasonable.

Inconvénients

I was hired into an executive leadership role at SolarWinds under the current CEO. While optimistic about the opportunity to turn the business around post breach, I started to realize it was all wishful thinking. 4 of the 6 other executives I interviewed with left the company within months after I started. In less than 6 months I had 3 different managers and ZERO performance reviews or feedback. The product strategies changed weekly. Plans would be set only to be scrapped and new plans introduced. It become clear there was no product plan or vision, just a lot of guessing. Any new ideas I tried to introduce were just met with resistance. And what good work was done was blatantly claimed by other executives. The culture it turns out was corrupt, with only lip service about how much leadership C.A.R.Es. I was happy when I left, and felt badly for the people who remained. The employees are very good, but they can not succeed with such poor leadership. And if customers knew how poorly the company is managed, I think they would leave even faster.

Avantages

Amazing office space in Charlotte with a strong emphasis on work-life balance. There are plenty of social events and networking opportunities that help employees stay engaged and build relationships across different business units. The recent IT reorganization has created a unique opportunity to participate in system and process design initiatives. While this level of change and transformation may not appeal to everyone, it offers valuable experience for those who enjoy shaping new processes and driving organizational improvements. I am optimistic about the direction of the organization and confident in the vision and leadership of the new IT management team.

Inconvénients

Career advancement opportunities can sometimes feel limited within a satellite office environment, and promotion paths are not always clearly defined. Employees seeking long-term growth may benefit from having proactive career development conversations with leadership. The recent IT reorganization has introduced a period of transition, resulting in some uncertainty and lower morale across parts of the organization. The department is currently in a rebuilding phase, and new employees should expect to contribute to the implementation of new processes, systems, and ways of working. Compensation appears to be somewhat below market rates for certain roles, which may be a consideration for candidates prioritizing salary growth.
