Pros

The culture is fantastic. I've worked for some great companies, but AppD blows them all out of the water. The leadership truly cares about your happiness and most importantly, there is ample opportunity for career growth. The compensation is competitive, and we have a team of people dedicated to maintaining our company values. I love my job!

Cons

For me the only con is my distance from an actual office location. I love spending time with my colleagues and wish we had an office in Austin!

AppDynamics Response
