Pros

flexibility, free snacks, food , PTO

Cons

Completely hopeless strategy. Just trying to keep up the revenue and the company up float. Even if they try hard, they are not going anywhere.. the products are dying, no execution capability, And they don't lay off the people that had destroyed the product instead they lay off good people that would actually make a difference.

Pros

Higher than average pay, restricted stock grants.

Cons

Pays for health insurance. But won't pay the ~$50/year it costs to maintain a 401k account. Repeatedly hires one team to develop a product, lets them go, then has to hire a second team to maintain the product. Except the second team has no historical knowledge of why a product was made the way it was, and may take twice as long to do anything. Extreme politics with managers trying to undermine each other. Deadlines are repetitively missed by several months with no one penalized. Workers in Sales, QA, etc., will privately discuss how they expect product launches to crash and burn. But they will not escalate anything to management "because that's how FireEye does things." They even may discuss when they expect you to be laid off, as well as their own expected last day.
