Pros

Zscaler offers ambitious, creative individuals the opportunity to be part of history in driving the company's disruptive direct-to-cloud network to overtake the stale, appliance-based model that dominates today's enterprise security space. In just 5 years, Zscaler has achieved a $1B+ evaluation, leader status in the Gartner Magic Quadrant for Secure Web Gateways, an enviable Fortune 500 customer base and a patent portfolio that will keep it in the innovation driver's seat for years to come. At Zscaler you are given the resources and the opportunity that any self-starter would kill for. Work hard, contribute to the culture and enjoy the ride. This company will IPO in less than 18-24 months and since there is very little dilution, employee stakeholders won't get screwed post IPO like they do at so many other companies.

Cons

Senior management has a low threshold for incompetence. Don't come to work here unless you want to kick ass and be the best at what you do. Low-achievers and slackers need not apply.

Pros

The pay and ESOP is good

Cons

Toxic management structure. Unnecessary archaic practices. Employee feedback is not at all considered by the upper management. If you get a bad manager, there is nothing more you can do.
