Pros

Great product idea, talented people (usually, for as long as they stick around).

Cons

Horrible (top) management, especially the CEO. He might actually run a good company into the ground if they don't whip him into shape or just fire him. A clear case of techy with bright idea but no management skills whatsoever demanding a CEO job. Micromanaging his management team which often results in scared management that then also starts to micromanage even though they have talented people working for them that know their job very well. They have such a high turn over rate; management gets rid of people on a whim just because they are pissed about the result of their own stupid actions.

Pros

Cyber is a relevant and hot area right now. The tech has some solid differentiators but most of it is hype

Cons

CEO is nowhere to be seen. Seems to dislike public appearances. Many other executive C levels that have been here since the IPO don’t seem to work. HR is dysfunctional. It’s the only part of the company that seemingly gets any investment. Company loves to announce products but seemingly can’t release them on time or without extensive issues. Reps spend months on selling only to lose due to product deficiencies. There seems to be an appetite to buy companies and then let them die.
