Pros

Worked inside sales when it was owned by Compuware. Had a great culture, hiring was constant due to expansion, competitive products and decent salaries and commissions. Really enjoyed working there during this time.

Cons

Company went private and three weeks later, in Jan 2015, Thoma Bravo turned everything upside down and laid off a boatload of people, which prompted many others to leave over the next several months. They seem to have weathered the storm and company culture has changed, but they remain to have competitive products. Problem is that management keeps things close to the vest so uncertainty remains, as I understand it. Thoma Bravo layoff was insensitive and brutal. Not the way to treat and respect people as they head to the door.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review, your insight is appreciated. Yes, we went private which usually brings about change. I feel we have definitely “weathered the storm” and a genuine effort is being put in from leadership, HR, and other groups to continuously improve our culture and foster open communication.

Pros

The best things about Dynatrace are the people and the products! People are the smartest I've worked with across a number of IT and software companies. Products and technology the best in the industry; most comprehensive and complete product set: real user, synthetic user with largest network (Gomez + Keynote), deep dive appmon with lowest overhead etc). The transition period since the thoma bravo takeover and CPWR demerge is now pretty much done so the company direction is set and we can focus fully. Career-wise it's cool from a techie perspective to know you are with the market leader so have integrity and 100% belief in the solutions we sell

Cons

Marketing spend is small compared to some competitors, so customers who 'believe the hype' from competitors' marketing teams can end up missing out on the best tech. Happily marketing is improving with some key hires and promotions and a more integrated strategy.

Thank you for taking the time to leave a review & share not only what you like about working here but your advice on how we can make Dynatrace grow. I’d have to say I agree, we definitely have some of the smartest people working here…and pretty awesome products. Happy to hear you are also feeling the positive changes as we have settled into the “new” Dynatrace. Lastly, it’s great to see that you are seeing the improvements you were looking for internally with marketing.
