Background check yes, drug test no
What's the work from home policy like at Dynatrace?
Top Employee Response
Depends on who you work for and what team. Many work remotely at their discretion while others are required to be in the office. Also, many are allowed to travel and work remotely for extended periods of time. It would be great if the policy was the same for everyone. I think it would increase morale among those who are mandated to be in the office 5 days a week.
Varies by team and role, but everyone has the technology to work from home at any time when needed. I would say Dynatrace is very flexible. Even positions that are office based often will work from home if there is a weather emergency, or a busy event going on downtown causing traffic issues. Also, most office based positions have an option to work from home 1 or 2 days a week.
Unless you are a sales person or sales engineer, don't count on a remote option moving forward. They have reverted from a very flexible remote employee policy to being very office centric (Waltham, Detroit, San Mateo in the States) and more managers are wanting to have their employees be stationed outside of their offices so they can quite literally see them and monitor them.
How's the morale at Dynatrace?
Any positive reviews posted on this site are crafted and curated by a savvy HR department with "plants" in other departments. This is the most toxic company and it will grind you to dust without a care for you as an employee.
I think it depends on what office and department you are in. There are a lot of changes happening that sadly are making the morale drop rather quickly for some.
It's really good! Everything from our product vision to our front line execution is aligned. The entire company is behind it. Employees are informed and everyone is in great spirits!
