Good company to work for

Senior software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

This is a good company with nice people and good potential to grow. The company takes good care of its employees (listens to any concerns, provides good facilities). Employees collaborate well on the chat rooms, one can speak freely with anyone - CEO, Research team, management, etc.. The company is in a growth phase right now and there is plenty of work to do and plenty of room to grow.

Cons

Company has multiple offices, so one may have to travel (once/twice a year) - not necessarily a con. I honestly cannot think of a serious con to mention at this time.. If I see any in the future, will update here.

Greatest amenities and promise for the future of any software company I've ever been with.

Senior software engineer

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

The care that Malwarebytes provides its employees is spare no expense. All of the management has been building successful software for years, in some cases decades, and there's no shortage of mentors, especially in the engineering group. They're entirely supportive of any endeavor you can prove valuable, and regularly culls any ideas that just turn into time wasting. Equipment, food, drinks, travel and fun are provided on-demand at zero cost and the company growth(including financially) has been staggering. I can't express how amazing it is to be a Malwarenaught on this rocket ship.

Cons

Dealing with the insane growth the company is experiencing. Finding talent that fits our culture and want to show up to an office is challenging, but Malwarebytes has never turned down exceptionally talented individuals if they want to stay remote. Honestly, the only problem is trying to double the staff for each division, especially considering the polyglot mindset of engineering.

Pros

Family-like environment, company wide focus on customers and their experience from the CEO down to the newest hire, open vacation policy, CEO's open door policy for anything an employee wants to talk about whether it's company specific or not.

Cons

Training can be tough to get because so many people are so busy, because it's a very start up like environment it can be tough to get smaller things done,
