Pros

The company outside of SLED was great

Cons

The Napolean-syndrome management of SLED are bereft of any management or leadership skills. They turn anyone and everyone against each other--looking for any slight or bit of data they can use against the next person. They are never wrong--just ask them. With nearly 100% turnover, it's amazing they can still hire good people. But just give those new people a few minutes and they'll soon realize the (hobbit) emperor has no clothes--or skills. This is by far the most toxic environment i have ever worked in-by far. Given the stock has tanked and the technology has been surpassed by many, it's astonishing anyone is buying Fireeye.

Pros

Their IT department was initially challenging to work for but once I got in the groove it was fairly smooth sailing.

Cons

Some departments were not on the same page and hampered communication.
