Pros

1) Team and culture are genuinely collaborative and supportive—people show up for each other, knowledge is shared freely, and there’s an authentic sense of ownership across functions. 2) Leadership is visible, strategic, and grounded in data, with clear priorities and consistent communication that connects day-to-day work to long-term goals. 3) Compelling future trajectory—the company has a strong product/roadmap, healthy business fundamentals, and meaningful investment in innovation, which creates confidence and opportunity. 4) Growth and development are encouraged, with managers who prioritize career conversations, stretch opportunities, and cross-functional exposure.

Cons

With high standards and ambitious goals, it’s not a place to coast—self-starters will thrive the most.

Thank you for the five-star review and for sharing your first impressions as a Senior Strategic Finance Manager. It is encouraging to hear that teams collaborate openly, share context, and take ownership across functions, and that leadership’s priorities and data-driven communication help connect daily work to long-term goals. Your point about our trajectory captures the ambition we aim to sustain. We also appreciate the reminder that our pace and standards suit self-starters best; that clarity helps people decide how they want to grow here. We will keep up a steady communication rhythm and maintain strong executive visibility so alignment stays high. If you see ways to sharpen focus or sequencing to support this pace, please share them with your manager or through our feedback channels.

Pros

- Culture: they have lots of fun events, and also focus on giveback events which is really nice to see - Focus on growth: my manager seems open to giving me opportunities to learn and develop. - People: everyone is so nice and helpful, if you ever have any questions people are ready to answer or point you in the right direction - Hybrid: appreciate that my position is hybrid (2 days onsite) so gives me flexibility!

Cons

I haven't come across too many drawbacks, it is a global company so dealing with the time change when working through a problem can make the resolution longer.

We appreciate you sharing your experience. It’s great to hear that your time at Infoblox has been defined by a strong sense of culture, opportunities to learn, and colleagues who are ready to help. Knowing that those things have stood out to you so early on is especially meaningful. Thank you as well for calling out one of the practical challenges of working in a global business. Feedback like this gives us a better understanding of where the Bloxer experience is strong and where there may still be opportunities to make day-to-day collaboration easier. If you have suggestions to share, we encourage you to speak with your manager or the People Team directly.

Pros

- Depending on the team, you could work with amazing people - It's a fast growing company

Cons

- Heavily integrated with India and other parts of the world so the working hours are intense - They secretly had layoffs but refused to announce it. They say they are transparent but really, they just use it so everyone else is transparent - Engineering and Product Management lack clear direction and long-term vision. Priorities change constantly, often driven by the “flavor of the week,” which leaves teams scrambling and abandoning work before it’s finished or properly thought through. It creates an environment where no one knows what actually matters. - There is little to no effective project management. Everything is treated as urgent, regardless of scope or feasibility, with very little concern for doing things correctly or sustainably. This leads to rushed decisions, technical debt, and unnecessary stress for engineers. - Employees are severely overworked. Burnout is normalized. Many teammates feel pressured to work excessive hours out of fear for their job security, which creates a tense and unhealthy work culture. The on-call schedule is brutal and poorly managed. Issues are well known, but leadership shows little interest in fixing or improving the system, despite the ongoing toll it takes on employees. - People management is weak at best. Many managers are ineffective and treat their direct reports poorly, yet they are rewarded for being agreeable to upper management. Being a “yes person” seems to matter more than actually supporting or developing your team. - They try to convince you AI won't take over your job but constantly demands you to use AI for every aspect of your job...

Thank you for taking the time to share this perspective and for your decade of contributions to Infoblox. We are glad you were able to work with talented teammates and that you experienced the pace and growth of the business firsthand. We also hear the seriousness of the concerns you've described. While we cannot comment on specific personnel matters or internal decisions in a public forum, we take these themes seriously. Creating a healthier operating rhythm requires clear strategy, stable prioritization, realistic planning, improved resourcing, and leaders who are accountable for how work is delivered and how teams are supported. We are continuing to focus on strengthening our people leadership, improving cross team coordination, and making on call more sustainable. Thank you again for sharing candid feedback, and we wish you success in your next chapter.
