Good benefits don't offset terrible trajectory and environment - Anonymous employee FireEye Employee Review

Layoffs every 6-9 months that butcher morale and conveniently eliminate good employees, overlooking people who are terrible. Guess leadership expects the good ones left behind to pick up the slack for everyone. People leave left and right to escape the sinking ship. Leadership and organizational changes seemingly every quarter, combined with always-changing business strategies (attempts to remain relevant as FEYE falls behind competitors). If our leaders don't even want to stick around, why should average employees? R&D priorities are constantly being changed, months-long efforts and investments are killed at the drop of a hat. Revenue-generating products are gutted, hiring all goes to India. Lack of 401k matching is "offset" by stock options... Go look up FEYE stock price. Lots of internal politics and all that comes with it.... Can't count how many times I've heard newer employees ask "Is this normal here?"
