      Great product, disfunctional leadership

      Director, software engineering
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Compensation and benefits are decent. Opportunity to contribute to a product that the majority of developers worldwide use.

      Cons

      Executive leadership is lacking, and poor hiring decisions have led to an exodus of the leaders who were making a positive impact.

      Some good, some bad...and some terrible

      Senior product security engineer
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business Outlook

      Pros

      Good work/life balance Some ICs and some managers are great to work with

      Cons

      Leadership is really lacking in long-term vision and some projects will get scrapped in favor of the new shiny at any given moment. Comp is a bit low compared to the rest of the industry.
