Pros

WLB is good. People complain about pay but it's still decent compared to anything non-FAANG. My management chain is good and I don't feel micro-managed. Problems and tech are interesting

Cons

Security products are still getting killed in the larger market. They're trying aggressively to grow (including adding headcount) but tbd if their strategy is successful

Pros

Great pay Great benefits including catered lunches, snacks, health insurance etc. Good WLB (at least on my time/in my org) Performance measured by impact not time-in office

Cons

In-office focus. If you are not already remote, expect a high hurdle to clear to get permission to switch to remote or reduce number of days required in office.
