Pros

It's really been a fun place to work, lots of nice benefits and a great bar. Not just beer, but an actual bar with 4 bears on tap that change all the time. But free soda and snacks and different types of lunch food is always in the kitchen. 401k match, good medical coverage, and the normal benefit things you would expect for a Silicon Valley company. The people are great. Everyone is really nice and wants to be successful. The company is in a fast growing security space, which creates a lot of excitement around our products and gives the company a lot of potential to be really successful. Overall, I think it's a pretty good place to work and hope the company is very successful so I can stay here a long time. No reason to think it wont continue to get better.

Cons

Lot of competition in the security space, so being able to continue to innovate is essential, and it moves really fast, because we always have to be a step ahead of everyone else, that can be a bit stressful if you are not used to a small company or a fast paced company. Sometimes it takes too long to replace the beer when one or two run dry and sometimes on Friday the kitchen food starts to run low (it's normally pretty good M-TH), which is too bad if you happen to have not brought anything to eat. It gets a little quiet in the office around 5:00, so if you come in late and work late, you might get a bit lonely.

Pros

Very supportive managers and a fun, highly collaborative team. The department fosters an environment where ideas are openly shared and opportunities for improvement are discussed constructively without toxicity. Truly the best company I’ve worked for so far.

Cons

The interview process was somewhat lengthy, and salary discussions were not entirely consistent.

Pros

It was okay before the favoritism and gender pay gaps

Cons

There is a lot of favoritism. When I found out I was making far less than a male coworker in the same role with less years of experience, they did nothing to rectify the situation. Also, the CEO is far too involved in Product and dictates rather than collaborates
