Pros

- Great company culture: Regional Head places great emphasis on creating and maintaining good working culture, surrounded by young and supportive colleagues that bond outside of working hours - Leadership: leaders that lead by example and regional senior management willing to provide advice and guidance - Meritocratic: opportunities abound for those who are willing to put in the effort and time - Technology: the concept and technology behind Darktrace is cutting-edge and employees are able to articulate the technology well - Employee welfare: consideration for employee welfare provided, centrally-located office and adequate pantry provisions

Cons

- Job scope: additional responsibilities may have to be taken on as company expands, good for those willing to expand their skill set beyond job scope but not everyone will enjoy doing so - Appraisals: no formal process in place yet; would be good to know what the employee has done well / could do better in certain areas - Results-driven: strong focus on numbers and metrics which can be a high-pressure environment for junior colleagues - Training: initial training provided only. Additional training opportunities to improve on skill sets and increase industry knowledge would be helpful

Pros

Autonomy & Independence: You get great autonomy to build your own schedule. It operates very much like a true field sales motion, which is great if you value independence. Perks: There is a high degree of expense freedom, and the Sales Kickoffs are a definite highlight.

Cons

The company is currently gasping for air and is super misaligned. There is absolutely no sense of direction. The Go-To-Market (GTM) strategy obviously doesn't work because leadership changes strategy it every Half because of poor performance . Turnover is INCREDIBLY HIGH, people was congratulating me that I made it at Darktrace more than a year when I left, which is never a good sign for a company. CEO REPVUE- stated that only 15% of reps hit their goal attainment at Darktrace from it's reviews. If you apply here, you need to know exactly what you are getting into and be willing to work extremely hard just to help dig the company out of a hole.
