      Great work, no prospects - Research Engineer Cloudflare Employee Review

      Pros

      Work on challenging problems with some very smart people. Good work life balance. Encourages writing about work you've done, support for standards work.

      Cons

      Compensation is below market after a few years and promotion is rare. Hiring comes from outside. HR makes promises about fixing this but doesn't follow through. Heavy favoritism: some teams get allowed to make problems for others, other teams bear the costs and aren't recognized.

      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.
