Pros

Good developers Strong CEO who likes us and takes us for lunch Lots of alcohol. We have lot of code named after alcohol. Lime, Martini, Tequila, Mojito we have it all.

Cons

Growing number of issues QA unable to find bugs but customers can QA does not have flexible testing process and metrics on quality Many people in QA don’t even know how many products we have or how it works Common joke on our floor is that most of the time QA says we can’t do or I don’t know how to test

Pros

- Remote first culture - Pay is okay - HR is implementing new programs to help improve culture - High communication from CSuite - Unlimited PTO & Thank you days (you will be asked to work on your days off)

Cons

- Interview process is extremely rigid and bureaucratic. - If you do get the role, it will not be the same one you interviewed for, I was fed a lot of inaccuracies in my interview. - No 401k, they did not tell me this in the interview. - Managers will retaliate against you and HR does little to stop it. - The company says they want to improve their diversity hiring but the "good old boys club" is very much alive and thriving here. - The best performers can still end up being ignored and retaliated against. - Sr Leadership is not aligned when it comes to overall company strategy. - Career advancement opportunities are not forthcoming here. - Many high performers leave in less than 1> year here "suddenly"- toxicity exists in many areas of the company. - The organization does not promote work life balance/ I've been asked to work on my PTO and Thank you days off, seems to be common across the company. - Working here is not sustainable.

Hello, Exabeam is working towards updating many of the operations focused around people and culture. HR would appreciate you reaching out to them directly to set time aside and discuss the concerns you mentioned. In the meantime, I've addressed a few points: • 401K - we do have a 401K, however we do not have a match at this time. This is something that is a hot topic for all our employees and something we do want to initiate, in time. We remain competitive within the market against companies comparable to our size. • Retaliation - this is a concern, and if this is the case, this must be addressed internally and quickly. • Diversity - The Talent team interviews diverse candidates, as well as URM (under-represented minority) groups within roles. As a whole, the company does select candidates with the highest transferable skills, as well as other key interviewing factors (behavioral/situation based, culture add, technical skills, and cross-functional collaboration). • Career advancement - People & Culture team is in the process of building a job architecture for all teams. Once this is complete, the employees will have a better understanding of their level, how to grow, and how to advance. We will educate the managers on having these conversations with their team. • Work/Life balance - we encourage you to communicate these concerns with your manager. Your time off is valuable to come back to work refreshed, energized and excited. If you feel this is not achievable, please reach out to your HRBP. Once again, I do encourage you to reach out to hr.people@exabeam.com

Sinking ship. Product and sales execution issues

Pros

Some good team members. Hybrid work.

Cons

Too many product issues for the last many years. CPO and Engg hide what is really going on and live for the day. If you are ex-Palo Alto or ex-Aruba, you are protected. HR is a joke - only ex-BlueVine can thrive. The latest round of layoffs included many good leaders and talent. CEO does not want to hear about product issues - he was the CPO till recently. Sales consists of white bros that protect each other - no accountability. The new executive team is clueless and encourages a culture that does not question them.

The recent reduction was a difficult decision that was not taken lightly. As was mentioned during multiple All Hands meetings, the reduction was not reflective of performance, but was an unfortunate result of macroeconomic conditions that we, and many of our peers, have had to make. There are multiple inaccuracies in your post, but we don’t view this as a public forum for such disputes. Glassdoor is meant to be an objective review site, and we hope you’ll engage with the leadership team or HR to voice your concerns directly.
