SolarWinds Reviews

Cons

None that i can think of

Cons

The process and the mood is too sales oriented even though it is a tech company
A bit repetitive.

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. So I guess I’m one of them now but thankfully in my new job they understood and a new coworker had 2 friends put through the mincer in that pathetic excuse of a workplace.
So my advice to you thinking of joining is “DON’T” and if you’re already stuck there and not part of the inner circle “GET OUT”. There are plenty other jobs that have dignity in the workplace.

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.

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 is the only thing they know. If you have any experience in IT this is not place for you.
Some managers and even high level management are very childish and will do anything to get rid of you if they don`t like you personally. Reacting as a 12 year old child. The reason why they are taking those positions is because they are playing politics and say only what their management want to hear. And because they are acting as a robots and not even thinking what they are doing and why, they don`t have their own opinion, absolutely useless. You will not see there a true individuals. No team work at all. In fact i don`t think they know what is that. If it is your first place of work then it might be good for you. But don`t stay there for too long and look for another opportunities as soon as possible and leave them with their culture.

Cons

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

Cons

Salary depending on your background can be terrible.
Management isn't doing a great job at managing the tasks and speading work evenly.
Double standards for some people/offices.
Support isn't really appreciated even though they say we are, there is very little money for us for bonuses and pay rises are a joke.
No time for training/upskilling as management will pile work on top of you.

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.

Cons

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

Cons

Sometimes just the normal politics
