Pros

Remote (but sounds like that's ending soon) Experience is dependent on your team and manager still the best cybersecurity vendor available for enterprise solutions

Cons

- Obsessed with hitting KPIs no matter what - Sr eng management will berate you in front of everyone on team calls - travel has been minimal last couple of years; I spent two years with my team and never met them - CEO is too busy with race cars - european salaries are peanuts compared to American - you can live in some random tiny town in Idaho and make more money than if you lived in an expensive European capital - 2 years and I can't recall ever speaking to a woman or black person. diversity is very skewed.

Pros

Remote work culture Is excellent, innovative tech, company's growth and opportunities to protect clients. Felt fortunate to have worked for this organization that has a strong growth tragectoruy and protects clients.

Cons

Manager/Director level: Poor communication from team manager/director, with little to no direction and the lack of team morale. Team members were on their own after training and most meetings could've been an email. The presence of the director was the equivalent of a virtual bulletin board. No ownership was taken from management to lead or guide the team and no sense of loyalty exists between management and team members. Good talent was squandered due to complacency and lack of direction. Company: Con for the company is the unfortunate lay offs that happened after leaving the company. It's a shame they laid off veterans from my former team. The writing on the wall was apparent, from outsourced new hires to the non-competitive compensation for newer hires. The company went from a fun and competitive start up to a disconnected company trying to emulate tech industry trends and "balances the budget" AKA lay offs, to look good to share holders. For a company that nets huge profits year after year, layoffs shouldn't be part of the reality.
