Fails to keep up with industry

Pros

Great learning experience and interface with many interesting clients.

Cons

Priority is made to deliver on client projects and little to no time is set aside to improve the service. Culture has changed to predominantly remote workforce and there is little opportunity for team building or social atmosphere. Work / life balance is being eroded away by higher client billable utilization requirements for individual contributors.

Pros

You could honestly not do any work at all and still have a job - if that's your thing. (It's not mine) The ERG groups can sometimes be fun.

Cons

Leadership - From VP level (there are so many) on down, Coalfire leadership refuses to own anything from their own processes to entering a business name correctly, they refuse to make decisions, and largely don't understand how to lead. At Coalfire, they believe leadership is saying "Yes" and making it happen. Clear expectations of you - I hope you don't want them because you are going to be attempting to hit a very poorly defined moving target, if you get any direction or onboarding at all. Coalfire completely lacks infrastructure, employee onboarding/training/upskilling, and any resources to support people struggling with stress or mental illness.
