Pros

Sticky product that helps them keep customers. Good people at the company. Solid compensation and benefits.

Cons

When working there, Fivetran holds all of these all hands meetings to talk about how well they are doing as a company. It now seems like they were withholding information or something because they laid off a lot of employees completely out of nowhere. Job security doesn't seem to be great unless you are one of the people who have been at the company for years. They also push out product updates to customers without testing them. So the customer experiences tons of issues and the Fivetran employees are thrown at the problem to try and fix it.

Pros

Product itself is solid and works well in its space Some smart, talented people at the IC level

Cons

Management quality is inconsistent at best, some managers lacked basic managerial skills and created a stressful, unproductive team dynamic. I can only speak for my department but culture has shifted from collaborative to highly individualistic; siloed thinking is now the norm. Directors and senior leadership are largely disconnected from ICs feedback goes nowhere and decisions often feel top-down without real input from the people doing the work. Career growth paths are unclear or nonexistent; promotions seem arbitrary and opportunities are hard to come by.
