Pros

1) The company continues to have a great startup feel. It remains to be nimble, fast-paced and open with communication. We get to put many different hats to broaden our expertise. 2) Benefits/perks. Good work/life balance. Free soda and drinks. Competitive pay. 3) You get to work with some of brightest minds in the networking industry, who are very willing to teach and share there knowledge.

Cons

1) Yes, there is a bit bureaucracy, however I don't believe its anything more than you see in any other company. 2) Weak on personal reviews and providing long-term vision for employees. Seems like management is working on these areas.

Pros

XKL provided a great place to work and an opportunity that was made even better by how they handled Covid with their staff and customers. During this time, not only was my work acknowledged and praised, and more opportunities were given to expand my role. As an example, My role was given more leeway and autonomy to control the content and job outcome. Management had been very perceptive to changes, and provided strong support. Leaving was definitely a painful decision to make.

Cons

Based remotely from the Company head office meant to travel to/from the office was cumbersome or not possible during Covid. Not the fault of the company - but I missed the human interaction.
