Pros

Warm, welcoming environment, extremely friendly coworkers, helpful peers in reference to training, excellent benefits, flexible with PTO, "family" atmosphere. Perks include weekly catered meals, weekly massages, and exciting and fun quarterly business trips.

Cons

Extremely fast paced with very little ramp up time. Tends to be quite a bit of "favoritism". Work life balance is talked about as if they really respect it, but it isn't really executed as such.

We are glad to hear that you love the environment at AppDynamics! Our goal is to have all of our employees to feel comfortable and at home here. Our perks are a way of thanking our employees for such excellent work. Our company is growing and expanding at an exponential rate, and we try to have our employees ramp up as fast as they can. We believe one on ones are very important, as we strive to encourage teamwork and team-building.

Thanks for taking the time to share your experience at AppDynamics. Your feedback about good benefits, free snacks and WFH is spot-on. We also appreciate those perks as well. However, it’s disappointing that you’ve listed so many cons about working here. Our culture and people are the heart of the company, and making AppD a great place for passionate people is one of our strategic initiatives. As far as your concerns with management, we’ve recently rolled out leadership trainings for all global people managers. As for learning and development opportunities, I encourage you to check out the L&D page on MyAppD - you can find a calendar with upcoming AppD workshops and also information on the many offerings through Cisco. We always strive to be better and appreciate your feedback.
