Pros

GuidePoint has a passionate, enthusiastic, and genuine leadership team that sets the tone for the rest of the company. Working here allows for flexible working conditions and schedule. Employees have the opportunity to impact the methodology and trajectory of a growing leader in Information Security. There is unheard of transparency into financial progress and senior leadership decision making.

Cons

GuidePoint is still a "start-up" atmosphere with all the challenges, growing pains, and added stress that comes with it. Cultural inconsistencies across a few small pockets of the company that still need to be worked out / corrected.

Pros

Strong company culture - we work hard and are rewarded for it. Consulting is not your typical 9-5 job but the company offers many perks such as remote work and flexibility which is great especially if you have a young family. Interesting projects with clients across a wide array of industries. Very cohesive team which starts from the top down. Always know that I can count on my coworkers, managers, directors and the partners. As with any consulting position the job can get extremely busy at times but this is all relative and balances out with lighter months in which we are able to use our training budget to advance our skill set or attend industry conferences.

Cons

Currently there is no 401K match.

A breath of fresh air......

Pros

I joined GuidePoint after leaving a much larger company. I became frustrated with the office politics and bureaucratic red tape that prevented any change or innovation. I am so happy I left. GuidePoint has been such a breath of fresh air and I enjoy working again. While GPS is still a small (but quickly growing) firm, they have put all the right tools and processes in place for a successful business. We have a great reputation in the security world and have grown primarily through internal employee networks and word of mouth. Besides a great culture, there are 100% employer paid health for employees, a primarily virtual environment, and super flexible work schedule.

Cons

The 401K doesn't kick in until 6 months, and I have heard they are looking to change that. I would like to see more benefits options like HSA/FSA and commuter benefits for those working on client site.
