A year later review-- Yes, it's as good as these reviews say.
Pros
Where to begin? The people are great. The work is interesting and more altruistic than any other tech. We're actually doing something for the good of people, helping you keep your digital lives secure. There is no engagement, retention, or session KPI. If you are a genuinely good person who wants to do good, you'll fit right in!
Cons
Compensation could be better. Our pay scales are based in Toronto. So if you live in Mississippi, the money will go very, very far. Anything beyond the Canadian metropolitan you're either barely even or very behind, so (SF/NY/Seattle) folks, you may have a hard time. We are supposedly looking into pay transparency, but that has yet to be seen. Same with our diversity and inclusion initiatives. It was a thing that we wanted to focus on for 2021, but I've yet to see actual news, developments, and changes. Don't get me wrong, people are still amazing and I feel safe and included as a minority, but I am within the bubble of my own team and have no eyes elsewhere.
