SolarWinds Reviews

Pros

This Company has it all. Great leadership in all offices especially in Cork. The culture is valued carefully and they care about their people.

Cons

None that i can think of

Advice to Management

Keep doing what you're doing.

Pros

There is just no reason

Cons

Ignorant management, ignorant minions that suck up to management to ensure bully tactics are working. Vulgar management and little shadows around them. The perfect definition of arrogance and plenty inappropriate smart comments to garnish the arrogance. Apparently everyone who has worked here in the past that has left or been dismissed for not being the perfect human being is trashed and described as a useless person....

Advice to Management

Management??? You mean the excuse for management? No, I have nothing to say, the air I breath is too precious to be wasted.

Pros

"You must enter at least 5 words for Pros."

Cons

EVERYTHING! Your managers, most likely, have been life-long friends, and you'll never be able to fit in unless you die and are reborn one of their friends (so never). They'll micromanage and gaslight you so much that you'll start to question if you've ever done anything right in your life. Management engage in bullying. I guess in order to be a manager, you need to top up your bullying skills.

Advice to Management

Throw the whole management team away and start over.

Pros

Zero. Since you will see the same in any other company.

Cons

I wouldn`t believe in all "Good Reviews" written below here. if you want to hear honest feedback talk to former Solarwinds employees, I don`t think that you will hear at even a few good things about them. They will also tell you about some accidents happened in their office which is a result of company behavior and culture. All mid-management doesn`t have any experience in IT outside Solarwinds. Basically Solarwinds...

Advice to Management

Keep doing what you are doing and you will have the same reputation!

Pros

During my time in SolarWinds Cork, here are some highlights. Gained experience with excellent products that are industry leading Advanced my career Exposed to new areas of IT Management as the company widened its portfolio Benefited from a positive, fun 'work hard - play hard' culture in Cork and worked among some great people at the top who genuinely care. Experienced a truly fast paced and dynamic environment...

Cons

Daily Sales model is a challenge for staff to sustain in the long term and has some negative repercussions throughout the business.

Advice to Management

Following their upcoming 2nd IPO, is it finally time to consider a change at the top..... ?This needs to happen for any significant change to the model and the company to continue to mature...

Pros

There are NONE!! If you want to call some dogs dinner on a Wednesday (Free lunch) a pro then be my guest, but I wont. Biggest pro of all, is there is other BETTER jobs out there that pay more & treat you a billion times better. **IF YOU ARE READING THIS & ABOUT TO ACCEPT A JOB OFFER FROM SOLARWINDS, DONT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!**

Cons

Management are brutal Directors are Brutal Micromanagement Unrealistic Targets No time off Made to feel like a piece of meat. Biggest Con of all, is knowing some other poor man/woman will be sold a dream in this dump & they will have to figure out quite quickly that what they have been told is all lies.

Advice to Management

Grow a pair you spineless mercenaries. Stand up for your teams & stop been scared little kids to open your mouth in fear you will kicked out of the clicky little circle going on in there.

Pros

Good Products, grand people except for the Big Shot

Cons

May as well not have mangers on the floor. They are just puppets.

Advice to Management

You have lost so many of us GOOD sales people simply because Management does not know how to Manage people and Senior Management under minds the rest. Deploying bully tactics and character knocking does not make for a motivated work force. Let your managers do their jobs!

Pros

Environment, knowledgeable, relaxed, and responsible people. And great office. Great work/life balance good salary

Cons

Sometimes just the normal politics

Advice to Management

Develop more challenges and opportunities for all Employees with a right direction.
