Pros

- Strong, innovative products - Great people - Some products/solutions really do make the internet better

Cons

- Extremely siloed with a 'first-team-to-execute, wins' mentality rather than having teams collaborate - Constant re-orgs cause frequent disruption in direction and significant employee fears and concerns on a recurring basis - Company is mostly against having a strategy - Need better support practices so the backlash doesn't require so many resources from other teams

Pros

- Strong platform - Mostly friendly and smart people - Good salary, but substandard benefits

Cons

- Strong culture of favoritism: if you’re not an OG or coming in from Palo Alto, you’ll face an uphill battle in sales. - Sales culture is terribly toxic, political, and cliquey, especially with the Palo Alto Networks invasion. - Ridiculous internal processes and poorly designed tools (still use more spreadsheets than tools, quotes can take weeks and I’m not kidding) - Zero sales tools (No Outreach, Gong, good luck even getting Zoom Info) - Substandard BDR team with 12:1 ratios of BDR to AE. Got zero set meetings in over 1 year with our team’s BDR.
