Vantaggi
This company has been around for 25 years. Sometimes, this can result in established ways of working that have been effective for a long time but are no longer as successful. With the new CMO and some new middle managers joining this year, we have gained valuable experience and knowledge in important positions we've needed, which is good for our future and ability to execute. We are beginning to test new ways of working, eliminating outdated processes, and are encouraged to challenge the existing practices. I am noticing increased collaboration each week and a strengthening of teams. Although there are still challenges (changing long-ingrained practices takes time and effort), we are starting to see a clearer path forward.
Svantaggi
SolarWinds is currently going through a period of evolution, and change can be difficult for some people. It requires flexibility and the willingness to tackle very tough challenges in completely new ways. This may not be comfortable for everyone, and that's okay. There are still additional changes we need that will really unblock many teams and finally let us run. We have some of the best products on the market, and we need to continue challenging the status quo and pushing ourselves to defend our position in the market and push ourselves into a whole new future.
