Pros

More Technical including Management.

Cons

Not many benefits compared to other Bay area companies. Looks from the eyes of East Coast (very imbalance), very thrifty and pessimistic. Bonus cut downs even after year long hard work. Slow hiring/ Resource shortage but expectations are very high.

Pros

Genuinely collaborative culture with talented, supportive colleagues across sales, marketing, and technical teams. * Strong work-life balance and flexibility compared to many companies in the cybersecurity industry. * Meaningful products and technology with a strong reputation in the market. * Employees are trusted to own their work without excessive micromanagement. * Good benefits and a people-first culture that generally prioritizes employee well-being.

Cons

As a large organization, decision-making can sometimes be slow and require alignment across multiple stakeholders. * Organizational changes and shifting priorities occasionally create uncertainty. * Cross-functional processes can be complex, which can impact speed of execution.
