Informatica reviews

We couldn’t agree more with your upbeat headline. Data is core to business and organization success, and Informatica is the company of All Things Data. With any technology company there will always be a dynamic tension between creating new and innovative products and features versus “hardening existing products.” While we are not perfect in this area, the fact that we have won top honors for customer satisfaction from TNS for ten years straight suggests that our customers, at least, feel we are doing a good job. Thanks to you and your colleagues in IPS for being so essential to that effort. “Work/Life Balance” is always somewhat subjective, but – according to your peers on Glassdoor – they rate Informatica between 4.23 to 4.3 (out of 5) on that category. If you are having difficulties in that area, please discuss this with your manager or your HR representative. As for the lack of equity and sharing the wealth, Informatica has developed an alternative bonus program to ensure that our employees do share in our success. As our CFO, Doug Barnett, pointed out at our last All-Hands meeting, being a publicly-traded company is the proverbial “two-edged sword.” The way the markets have treated tech stocks recently, our move to private ownership seems fortuitous in its timing. We will take your advice to heart, and again accept our appreciation for taking the time to share your thoughts.

Thank you for your review of Informatica and your positive comments. If you participated in our most recent All Hands meeting on April 18th, you heard our new Chief Human Resources Officer, Maureen Brennan, state that one of her primary objectives is a renewed emphasis on career development and training. We already have launched an initiative to establish goals and objectives for each of us that roll up to the Company’s overall strategy. And soon we will be announcing our latest employee engagement survey so that we may understand what works for our people as well as where we can improve. As for rapid change, that sort of “goes with the territory” in high tech. While it can be disconcerting at times, we prefer to think that it makes our roles exciting and challenging. Thanks again for your comments and best wishes for your continued success at Informatica.
