Pros

- Amazing tech with a truly innovative approach to security - Engineering founders are very talented; like, 99.9999 percentile types - Huge individual growth opportunity if you want it - Backed by amazing VC firms - Early stage company that consistently closes seven-figure business (amazing)

Cons

- CEO isn't experienced and hasn't been in leadership roles prior to this - Technology is so complicated that it more often than not becomes shelfware for the purchasing organization - Due to poor leadership, the organization is constantly in flux and dealing with massive turnover problems. It's basically a revolving door - Execution is a massive challenge, specifically across sales and marketing - There isn't much culture or values within the company, and it isn't something the founding members care about

The people at RiskIQ are great and truly want the best for you

Cons

The start-up culture was starting to die down when I was there leading to much less opportunity than a typical startup.
