Pros

None ..... If you think you are a hero and can change anything and make everything and multiple other options and offers in hand always then try it. Only helpless people are staying over there , without on time salary forget about increment or appreciation , they don't even care you are part of their organization, with multiple competitors coming to market they have started feeling he heat and instead of consolidating their product and resources they have started minimizing their expenses as if they are going to close down at any point of time. I heard that this year they did not give any hike besides cost cutting on their facilities. So it up to you , And I warn don't fell prey to all false good reviews they have appointed a person to post all these good reviews and improve rankings , logically no body spend time in posting so many good things about their company.

Cons

All prons if you DO NOT JOIN other wise all the cons and face the consequences

Pros

Super smart, technical, hardworking, friendly, and humble team crazy about customer success. This is our second family and I can personally vouch that all bad reviews here are from bad performing employees. No one has better technology stack and faster product engineering team.

Cons

No patience for any slack in customer success

Pros

Solid Cybersecurity Platform - Sells itself

Cons

The Setup BDR role, 2024. Recruited with promises of competitive compensation to “bring on the best people.” Red flag #1: No comp plan provided at signing. The Pattern • 5.5 months of “it’s on the CEO’s desk” while I generated pipeline • When delivered: 3-4x below market rate with unrealistic quotas • The math: OTE becomes fantasy when base + realistic commission = poverty wages • Classic bait-and-switch: Lock in talent with promises, deliver reality after they’ve invested months The Impact You’re doing enterprise-level prospecting into Fortune 500 accounts while being compensated like it’s your first sales job. The company gets premium work at discount prices. Experienced reps leave, creating constant churn that hurts customer relationships and team morale. The Warning ASK THESE QUESTIONS: 1. “Can I see the full comp plan before signing?” 2. “What percentage of BDRs hit 80%+ of OTE?” 3. “What’s the average tenure of your BDR team?” 4. “Can I speak with current BDRs about realistic earnings?” If they deflect, you have your answer. The Verdict Pro: Strong product with market potential. Con: Leadership treats compensation transparency as optional, not foundational. Any BDR worth their salt would run if they saw the real numbers upfront. I didn’t think a company could operate this way after 10 years in the industry. I was wrong. Bottom line: Never sign without seeing the comp plan. Period.
