FireEye reviews

As you grow from a new grad position at FireEye, you will realize management is consistently incompetent throughout the organization. The Malware Research group is dysfunctional. Management is egoistic, partial and focused only on personal growth. This team had one of the worst attrition rates, that witnessed talented people leaving key positions which were then back-filled by external candidates favored by the management but, not necessarily sufficiently qualified. In the Malware Research team, there was absolutely no scope for new ideas like applying machine learning for detection -- mainly due to management's lack of ML knowledge and experience, and lack of interest in filling the gap by hiring right talent for the job. Data scientists were expected to simply serve malware researchers, not to innovate. The sad part is FireEye was a company that could have become the Google or Facebook in the security space but, it's unlikely to happen, thanks to the poor state of management.

Where to start? this is the worst place I have ever worked at ever including the jobs I had in high school.The place was built on greed,90% of the IT department where nothing but stock watchers that did as little as possible just to slither by while talking about what cars they where going to buy once they sold their stock. The ones that did work hard and tried to make change where never rewarded and where just ignored in their ideas.The execs pumped the stock up to $90 at the peak sold and they all all got rich and now the stock is now at the $15 (!) range leaving the employees with worthless RSUs along with low pay. Perks are garbage who cares about free lunch and free snacks when there is no 401k matching and RSUs that are worth squat? I heard they got a new "gym" now and it's another joke.
