Pros

Company is growing to become a solid player in the cybersecurity space. middle management is great and inspires.

Cons

company has made a lot of acquisitions but the growing pains of this is a lot of disorganization and overlapping of teams. The result is some products are only given to certain teams, and customer may have different reps per product currently. Upper management has made some moves like getting rid of senior leaders that is not a good long term play.

Pros

While they claim to be "pro-employee" they are very much pro-Canadian employee. As long as you are a Canadian, your job should be safe. And US based role is in jeopardy.

Cons

Laying off all Americans. I do not see relevant data on location based statistics for the last 4 rounds of layoffs. The bulk of the "trimming" has been based in US. This is cost savings. Additionally, they post US based jobs for 24 hours then pull those and post H1B notifications that they could not find equivalent US resources and need to outsource for cheaper money.
