Pros

Not sure, I have read some reviews that are very good. Diversity is a big winner, but in my opinion if you not a Diversity group you may feel it.

Cons

Rule by fear of job loss, Contradictive. One lead will tell you how to do something and the other lead will mumble out 3 three different answers and will say I told you how to do that. Meanwhile the upper management panties get in a bind and just want to point fingers.

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.
