Pros

Enough leeway to survive for a while

Cons

Toxic work environment. Promotion circus. Everyone that was talented has left or is leaving, with plenty of incompetent people sticking around, particularly in engineering. Product was once state of the art now can barely compete and all that remains in a brand over the shell of the company.

The pay, the people, the benefits

They're a non-public, start-up company, they had layoffs which is always scary.

Pros

Product is simple to learn Most of the people are wonderful

Cons

No career opportunities - whatever position/salary you get hired at is the end of your journey. I am pretty sure I saw less than 4 TSMs get promoted in my entire time there. Beyond toxic internal systems - Sales teams completely control your life/career, whatever you are imagining isn't half of how bad it gets. No vision at all - I had 4 different direct managers, 3 different directors and all but a handful of C-suites ran for the hills. Clearly no one knows what to do with the company. Product - Its honestly a wonderfully polished turd. Snyk looks really good at first, then you realize it barely does SCA/SAST, DAST is good but thats only because they acquired it. Their AI tooling... half baked would imply someone at least thought about putting it in the oven. Layoffs - Didn't impact me, but clearly investors want their money and only hope is to gut the company.
