Pros

CAD truly has a healthy work environment and an excellent company culture. The teams collaborate effortlessly and productively, without contention or personality conflicts. The VP of Engineering is very involved with every engineer’s professional and personal development, as well as, their wellbeing. She is well respected and extremely active in the IT security community. CAD gives you the tools and support you need to be successful. The future continues to look bright as we bring on new partners, services and associates. I actually look forward to coming to work every day.

Cons

This is a dynamic, engaging place to be. It’s not for someone who wants to just punch a clock. My con comments are really for Glass Door. They should not allow one person, who obviously has a personal issue, vent publicly on their platform using different identities. Leave that to non-professional social media.

Pros

Family-oriented atmosphere, and because it's a small company everyone has ownership of something and contributes in major ways. It's definitely a good place for a go-getter, and experienced professionals. Everyone pitches in regardless of the task or project. They've added 401k, paid maternity leave, additional vacation/PTO, and have always had great medical and health benefits. Oh and there are two offices and work-from-home is an option now, so that offers flexibility but yes does lead to empty offices occasionally. I guess none of us see that as a problem.

Cons

This is not a good environment if you want to stick to a normal daily routine or work hard without continuing to grow. It's also sad that even in a close family-oriented atmosphere there are still former coworkers (or, specifically one former coworker) who can't get past being let go. Really he was considered a "top performer" but was miserable here, and the rest of us begged for management to replace him. No one knows why years later he's still sore about the whole thing- he obviously didn't like it here and I'm sure has moved on to things better for him. Compensation could be a little higher, but they're working on that too.

Pros

Speaking as part of the management team, I can say we have THE BEST TEAM of people, period. Never in the history of our organization have we had such amazing flow and interaction between team members, departments, and management. We have stressful periods where everyone works hard and pitches in, but at the end of the day, everyone's happy and creates a great environment. Feedback is encouraged, and everyone has realized now that their feedback is well-received and not ignored. We've made a LOT of changes in the last few years, in terms of people, processes and tools, and the feedback we've gotten from our team has been great. People hang out together, go to lunch together, share a sense of humor and work collaboratively. Individual (personal and professional) and team goals are recognized and celebrated en mass! Collectively, we've spent a lot of energy building corporate culture in the last year or so, and it's been worth every nanosecond of extra thought and time to make that happen.

Cons

We have our quirks. We're not perfect, and our processes aren't perfect (yet), but the team members contribute heavily now to everything from running meetings to participating in strategy planning. The only real "con" is that we didn't start it sooner.
