Inconvénients

The company does not care about its employees. The corona virus crisis highlighted this more than ever. When every other tech company in the area and the country was encouraging their employees to telework, MicroStrategy kept insisting everyone should be in the office unless they have an "extreme emergency". None of their emails ever stressed that the company was concerned about their workforce, they only mentioned how important the customers are. Furthermore, the CEO's personal email to the company was one of the most unempathetic things I've ever read. He spoke about the crisis in terms of statistics, saying that we shouldn't worry because there are much worse diseases out there. The icing on the cake: he essentially wrote "some people will die but they're old so its okay, we really need to worry about the economy". It really shows how disconnected he is from normal working people. My advice? If you end up here get what experience you can in the first two years then go elsewhere that actually thinks of its workforce like people and not numbers to their bottom line

Avantages

You will learn ALOT here and if you can stomach the culture you can get promoted quickly or move teams with little friction. Above market rate benefits that start Day 1 Generally speaking good camaraderie amongst the worker ranks I’ve held multiple roles and have appreciated the opportunities to travel internationally which was life changing The product has a little bit of a learning curve but it genuinely is something special once it’s up and running I felt that towards the end of my tenure my pay was exemplary although I really had to earn it

Inconvénients

Wowwwww where to begin… Well it’s a top down organisation but also a market laggard. Given our position relative to our competitors this regime of leadership is responsible for missing the moment in Cloud, BI and AI. Middle management and upper management alike don’t have a clue and it’s definitely a soap opera of leadership and empire or cult building. Not a great feeling of purpose when everything you do internally as well as with customers is overshadowed by Bitcoin. Dwindling customer base. We’re really only making money by replacing ironically technologies older than us (Cognos,BOBJ) or moving existing customers to our managed cloud The community is totally dead especially internationally. Minimal on the ground experts at strategy and a very loose and underfunded partner program Product conceptually is great but struggles to differentiate from hyperscalers and modern cloud data platforms on value. Leadership can definitely get a little preachy touting merits or metrics that are pretty vain in the big picture Specifically in the last 3 years gaslighting has been the norm for management. Everything here feels performative and doing your best to do your work without upstaging or upsetting your manager. The RSU distribution definitely feels like serfdom. The employees at the bottom get a single digit or if you’re a heretic you get double digit number of RSUs, but it definitely does not seem fair that the benefits of the Bitcoin strategy rolled to the top, at least when the asset is up
