      Huge turnover. No loyalty. Shady management.

      Customer success manager

      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Flexibility - catered breakfast and lunch? Not a lot to say here. Having a hard time filing out the 20 word minimum

      Cons

      Shady management. Brought in their old buddies from their former company that failed and fired or forced out all original employees who made the company what it is.

      At AppDynamics, it is very important to us (from executives to the individual contributor level) to be as innovative as possible. To be innovative, we must foster a diverse environment, where people from different backgrounds can contribute their ideas in a space they feel safe. This has been at the core of our values from day one. Thank you for sharing your thoughts.

      - Lots of politics and nepotism from sr. management on up. - Management style is abusive. - Bosses, not leaders. - Zero representation and communication from the executive team.

      Terrible toxic culture

      Enterprise sales
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Previously some great learning opportunity from seasoned sales people and to force the practise of good sales execution. Unfortunately the new wave of “leaders” don’t have any of the credentials to run the dictatorship.

      Cons

      Despite any previous sales experience expect to be treated like you have just left school. There is an expectation that everybody is incompetent and has to be subservient to the management, opinions are frankly not allowed and during QBRs you are only expected to give “yes” or “no” answers. Calls and meetings will be put into your diary at 7am and considered mandatory without any discussion. The deep dive into your “drive” uncovered during your interview process will be questioned constantly and used to humiliate you publicly. Expect to see marriages breakdown as the norm, as well as health problems - there won’t be any support when this happens. The lion culture has become a cult, and leadership with credibility replaced with a bunch of 30-something’s who thrive on belittling the people around them. It’s a cult.. which if you make it out alive will make you realise the psychological impact of working in such a toxic environment.
