Pros

2015-2022 It was a place to learn

Cons

NCC Group in the US as initially established in 2010s was a place that fostered learning and deep security analysis. Some really smart people used to work there, you could learn a lot. At some point, the board decided that this model doesn't make enough money. They replaced the previous CEO (Adam) and put in a new CEO (Mike). This resulted in a change of course - technical work and research are no longer a priority. Nowdays, it's all about trying to sell cheap service to a massive amount of clients. If you're a technically oriented person, NCC Group is no longer for you. If you're a potential customer who's looking for strong security analysis, this place is no longer for you.

Thank you for sharing your views. While changes in leadership and market conditions can have significant impact on an organisation's culture and priorities; as an employer, it's crucial we take accountability also. Acknowledging the impact of these changes on employees and clients is essential for fostering transparency and maintaining trust across the organisation. We appreciate you sharing your perspective.

Pros

Nice and talented teammates, decent experience in resume

Cons

1. Bad WLB, gigs are chained together, no time to take a break after completing a long gig 2. The CEO is unprofessional and childish, he does not care about consultants, and he has been ruining NCC Group. 3. The management is dishonest and good at telling lies 4. Some benefits such as training budget is eliminated since the 1st layoff, and no salary rise. 5. No job security, they cut almost half of consultants in NA so far. 6. If you take PTO, your are far away from bonus, and close to layoff because decreased billable days RUN AWAY!!!

Diversity of work, smart people

Cons

Too many layoffs of late. New management seems to be hiring in the top ranks while laying off junior and midlevel staff.

The recent changes made are understandably hard for those impacted, but they have been made to make sure we’re the right shape and size to take our business forward to be a growing, healthy and resilient business that can meet market demand.
