Pros

1. Easy to get in and start your career in IT even without experience or knowledge base 2. People. Atmosphere in company is friendly, enthusiastic and dynamic. I am still in touch with most of colleagues. 3. Opportunity to get stable career at one place.

Cons

1. Low starting salary (comparing to other companies at market). 2. Need to be ready to work extra hours from time to time or even regularly ( depending on job position). Still, not unusual in IT :)

Pros

Stable work place. Well Known & Successful in the security field. Nice co-workers. A lot of job opportunities inside the company. Bonus at the end of the year + company options investment program. A lot of beautiful girls work there). A lot of restaurants to order food from. The new products support new and better technologies. They do try to make the workplace better and solve the problems relating the work process. The HR are responsive and helpful.

Cons

Not very organized work process. Typically late on schedules. To much background noise and interrupts making the work process agitating. A lot of co dependents with a work overload, makes it difficult to progress. A lot of old & legacy products to support. Cannot use 10bis in restaurants outside, except maybe one or two. Lack of young spirit\culture. Lately more people leave the company the get hired, which makes it even more difficult on those who stay.

Pros

You will learn things and create amazing connections between people at this company. You will be able to work as a team and have a close relationship with your colleagues. The growing potential within the company is immense and the rewards exist provided you stick around. Management will push you and keep your best interests in mind, it is never a numbers war and when it comes to job security, people will stick up for you. Paid lunches and amazing company paid outings.

Cons

The work load is high and you will have to deal with an abundance of stress and pressure. The training process is long and you will still come out of your first training scared to death of the customer (for only 2 weeks or so). The difficulty of moving up from some positions vary and sometimes you will get drowned out if you don't speak up many times. Certification tests are difficult and have some outdated information.
