Hope you wanted a job in politics

Pros

Your immediate colleagues will generally be great to work with. There are plenty of teams that have a genuine desire to make a great product and experience for customers.

Cons

Whatever you were hired for, your actual job will be managing the politics and egos of every manager you come into contact with. 10% what you came here to do, 90% being thrust into the pettiest, lowest stakes version of House of Cards. A majority of the time, you'll feel like you're fighting for your life just to meet your basic responsibilities. Even knowing that cybersecurity is an ol' boys club, this is especially true here. Of all the hires for the Engineering department from Q3 until the end of the year, 2 of them were women. You can make a difference here, but be ready to be talked over, down to, and dismissed by your male colleagues. Especially if those male colleagues are in management. There are a lot of organizational changes that are going on that aren't communicated. You'll hear of entire departments getting reorganized through the grapevine instead of from the people who should be telling you.
