What's it like working at New Relic?
We are customer obsessed and product focused.
We work with some of the smartest, nicest people you'll meet. We ship incrementally and often. Once we merge code we normally want to ship it straight away. We own our process and we're free to improve on it.
We want Monday to be your best day, and New Relic to be the place you do your best work. People come in; work focused, then go home for dinner and disconnect to come in refreshed the next day. Teamwork is combined with respect for the individual. Family is important.
What's it like working in the Seattle office?
New Relic Seattle is a rare opportunity to work in a startup environment where the entire office fits around the lunch table, yet also be part of a growing post-IPO company. We work together as a team, ready to collaborate and willing to ask questions, but also respect time set aside for coding and focus. Agile is not just a term; it's in our DNA - our software, our processes, our releases, and our attitudes. The office feels like it's “ours”.
We're a dog friendly office; you can bring yours in every day if you want.
