Documentation Lead at Pentaho Corp.

Please give us a one liner to describe this review.

"A floundering startup in a bad location"

What do you like about working at Pentaho Corp.?

"The engineers, support people, and other low-level employees were talented and cool. The company provided a ton of free junk food for everyone."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Ask why this position is open. Ask how many rounds of layoffs and how many rounds of investor funding this company has gone through. Ask yourself if you want to relocate to Orlando, where there are very few tech companies to switch to if you leave this job."

What don't you like about working at Pentaho Corp.?

"Middle management is entirely incompetent. Even much of the upper management have no idea what they are doing. There is a whole-company pivot at least three times per year."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Streamline management so that the great talent can think independently and work creatively. Eliminate anyone who isn't doing real work. Limit the number of meetings that can be called by any person per week."
