Pros

Hot company in a hot space. Great product with clear differentiation from competitors. Seasoned leadership team, which seems to work really well together and getting better every day at leading a rapidly growing company. Company does really big, strategic deals in US Govt, Financial Services and Healthcare and some day will be doing the same across all verticals and geos. Exciting to be making such a difference in securing companies against the threats of bad actors.

Cons

Wall Street still underestimating company, so share price trades at a discount to other security companies (potential for upside as CEO, CFO and CCO seem to be doing a good job getting Wall Street to better understand). Working through growing pains across sales, SDR and marketing, though have made great strides since the big pre-IPO push.

Pros

Work-life balance Fully remote Opportunities for travel

Cons

Zero direction from the very start - role responsibilities changed multiple times in the year+ that I was there, and thus I was always confused (along with my direct supervisor) about priority, status, and feedback of projects. Hopefully the pending CEO change will make some kind of a difference - it’s MUCH needed.
