Pros

1. Great work colleagues coming straight from school 2. There are a couple of people in upper management who truly mean well but are outnumbered by those who do not care

Cons

1. Corrupt management (former autonomy management) 2. Very bad perks compared to similar successful tech companies in the Bay Area with similar turnover (a search on Linkedin for people who have worked at Darktrace will give you a feeling for average turnover, last time I checked it was around 1.5 yrs, look at similar successful tech companies in the Bay Area and the perks they offer in comparison: look up this on business insider: average-employee-tenure-retention-at-top-tech-companies) 3. Shadow politics: I would run the following websites: invoke capital team, the executive team on Darktrace through this tool: "WayBackMachine", it will help point out which executives used to work there, I would have questions for your interview about why some of the changes exist or what may have happened for them to move on To summarize, if you still wish to work for this company, even after reading through the reviews, I would demand an above average salary for taking on the risks to your career and health, especially given the data above.

Darktrace, career wrecker

Recommend

Pros

Great for taking a break/figuring out what to do in the mean while. Product though simple, seems like it does add value. Although, the price range is too high.

Cons

Terrible middle management, directors don’t really know what they are doing. Company doesn’t share Vision/long term plans. There is a very bad culture of employees fighting over accounts. Very dubious company founder! Personally, will only recommend to my worst enemies.

Pros

entry level job for new grads looking to get into Sales.

Cons

It's basically daycare for adults because they treat you like children. Lack of career opportunities for Inside Sales. Terrible culture Lack of re-investing funding into sales other than just hiring more Sales people Terrible middle management
