Pros

the product had a real kick and value a few years back, the company had the best talent in the country at one point

Cons

- the product has become more of a school project now as all the great talent in the company has eroded. - work-life balance is really bad, but expected from startup culture - too much politics and toxic culture have ruined a lot of opportunities for the product to reach its highest potential. - the new vp of engineering lacks technical knowledge and has people-pleasing issues - competitors like talend are now much ahead of the curve, which were at a point behind infoworks

Pros

The product is nothing short of amazing. The company claimed that its customers were doing things in days that used to take months and I was skeptical. However, after I got here I found out that this was absolutely true. I have been in the data integration space working for startups and established companies for the past 10 years and Infoworks is really delivering on the promise of automating big data integration and making it possible for people who aren't hadoop/spark experts to successfully complete big data projects. It is a pleasure to work for a company and on a product that works so well and actually delivers on its claims. A refreshing change vs my previous companies where the marketing was way ahead of what the products could actually do.

Cons

There is huge potential and the company has closed some really big name brand customers. However, sales cycles are long so they are not adding customers as fast as we would all like.
