Pros

Bomgar is rigorous in their interview process, but they offer great compensation, benefits and overall work environment should you make the grade. As a small company, they have a camaraderie not found in larger corp environments. This sometimes means one may need to wear many hats depending on the position. Overall the working environment is fun and casual.

Cons

As a small company, advancement may be difficult as there isn't a great deal of positions to advance into. Product vision can appear short-sighted (1 year/2 development cycles) and can change quickly as importance is placed more on chasing competition rather than blaze their own path. This can make it difficult to communicate product vision both internally and externally, and can make it difficult to fully implement complicated feature sets resulting in features that feel incomplete or are released with insufficient quality. Regular maintenance updates address these issues, however larger clients tend to balk at regularly updating mission-critical solutions. If you are a Christian conservative republican, you will feel at home with the prayers ahead of corp meetings, corporate values based on Christian tenets (though the same values may be stated without the religious focus) and political endorsements/recommendations from management via email. Otherwise you may feel a bit alienated as many who work here are like-minded in this regard, and share these characteristics both in and outside of the workplace (e.g., many attend the same churches, etc). Some in management are not particularly receptive to input that differs from their own ideas, and may tend to treat differing ideas as dissent.

Pros

Where to begin? The team I work with day in and day out is one of the absolute best! We are serious enough to GSD but know when to take a step back to breathe or laugh. Leadership is solid at the top; from Janine Seebeck as CEO throughout the ELT. Change. It is constant, which I need to feel motivated. And all the other people I encounter on a daily basis across all of our business units. To be able to partner, collaborate and learn along side so many different people in various roles is a key component to why I stay.

Cons

BT can be a hard place to work; we're fast paced and constantly morphing. If working hard isn't something you want to do, then this wouldn't be the place you'd thrive.

Thank you for the review. I agree that our leadership is great, but what really makes this place special is our people. They are talented, supportive, driven, and friendly. Our CEO says, we take our jobs and our commitments seriously but ourselves less so, which creates a unique environment which to work hard but also enjoy yourself. Great callout on the skip levels. It is a great way to dive deeper into the organization. Appreciate your being part of the team.

Pros

BeyondTrust provided meaningful opportunities to work in a fast-growing cybersecurity company, take on significant responsibility, and build experience during a period of rapid expansion. There are talented employees throughout the organization, and the company’s growth can create opportunities for people who have strong internal sponsorship.

Cons

The culture can be highly political and relationship-driven. Advancement often appears to depend more on visibility, internal alliances, and proximity to senior leadership than on performance, experience, or subject-matter expertise. There is a significant amount of behind-the-scenes positioning, gossip, and credit-taking. Employees may receive support publicly but encounter very different behavior privately. Trust between peers and leaders can therefore be difficult to establish. Some senior HR leaders appear more focused on managing upward and maintaining favor with the executive team than on advocating for their employees, challenging poor decisions, or providing candid leadership. Employees should not assume that strong performance or loyalty will result in support when difficult situations arise. The organization also has a tendency to place people into roles before they have the experience required to perform them effectively, sometimes seemingly as a cost-saving measure. This can leave inexperienced leaders making major decisions while more qualified employees are overlooked. The result is inconsistency, weak accountability, and leaders presenting confidence without having the operational knowledge to support it. I also observed behavior that could feel dismissive or chauvinistic, particularly when strong women challenged decisions or advocated directly for themselves. These behaviors were not always addressed consistently.
