Pros

The pros *used* to be the technology, research and tremendous insight in to global attacks.

Cons

Post IPO and Mandiant acquisition innovation is dead. Introduction of middle managers has introduced territorial power grabs and the organization overall has moved to a KPI metric approach. Everything and everyone is just a number to upper management. There is more focus on outside perception of the company which has led management to come up with vast product line without the supported investment in research. Needless to say most of the products are not mature enough albeit the core products. Research is dredged by politics from mcafee style management and has moved to a traditional reactive AV approach instead of focussing on the long game.

Pros

I don't find pros, I regret that I joined the company.

Cons

People in management has too much power and they take advantage of your visa status. Manager in the company talks rudely and tell you openly that he will get you fired if you don't whatever he says.
