Pros

Great company that was in the process of reinventing itself when I had to move out of San Diego for personal reasons. I was sorely disappointed that I could not stick around for the transformation. The culture of the company was changing. Out with the old in with the new. Some employees had been there for a decade or more and were complacent. In my opinion, the old way of doing things was holding the company back.

Cons

The benefits could have been better.

Pros

Worked with some really great people, who unfortunately have the same outlook. This caused a lot of negative (and hilarious) "water cooler" talk.

Cons

EdgeWave has been, and most likely always will be the laughing stock of the cybersecurity industry. Email solution is OK, but still gets beaten out in deals by competitors that actually take part in the Gartner Magic Quadrant. Web security solution is 20 years behind. You're better off having nothing in place. It can't even stop a 5th grader from going to a porn site. The Huawaii firewall... well, it's a Chinese firewall. This is the United States, and China is one of our biggest adversaries when it comes to cyber warfare. When you are trying to sell a Chinese firewall to a company in the US, how do you think that deal is going to play out? Oh yeah, and I think they fired the only person that knows how to install them.
