Pros

Darktrace takes newer cybersecurity pros and offers a lot of training and support to elevate their skills. Overall they prioritise hiring those with work ethic, maturity, and emotional intelligence, so the team is overall fun and easy to work with. They promote growth in the direction you want to go. Its also a quickly growing international company, so there is a lot of room for business growth and related opportunities. This includes travel and (if you're a good worker) the potential for relocation. Exceptional workers can work fully remote, but otherwise expect to go into the office at least once a week. Lots of opportunities to go above and beyond and stand out. There are clear avenues to increase your pay and get bonuses.

Cons

There are growing pains. Pay might be a bit low relative to other companies, but the training and culture make up for it in my opinion. Working at DT as an analyst also means you get very good at using the DT technology suite, and can be fairly insulated from other tech. As such, some of the skills here do not feel very portable (although the core knowledge does)

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.
