Doesn't RecommendNeutral OutlookNo opinion of CEOI have been working at Hortonworks full-time (More than a year)
Pros
Competitive salaries and benefits. They also allow for flexible work schedules and work from home days. Most coworkers are friendly and helpful. Technology is interesting.
Cons
Management doesn't seem to be able to make a decision and see it through. Plans are constantly changing, resulting in an unhealthy, chaotic environment. It feels like a bunch of VPs and Execs are flailing around, unsure which direction to go, and everyone is pulling in a different direction.
