Pros

Great CEO and CFO .. great engineers

Cons

Terrible sales leadership. Transactional and tons of pressure but no leadership. Don’t care about customers/ just see them as short term transactions. Management seems sexist

Pros

One of the best workplace environments I've worked in where everyone is super helpful, irrespective of their title or responsibilities. Flexibility to pursue any aspect of cybersecurity and learn related technologies can be seen looking at people moving between teams as needed. One can take time-off as and when required without needing to count days, but most people prefer to come to work instead of wfh. Competitive base compensation. Fun events throughout the year to keep employees motivated.

Cons

If you have a tendency to eat out, one food truck on campus for couple of hours is most viable option, else you need to drive to go to a restaurant. A workplace gym or better discounts on nearby fitness centers would have been nice.

Interesting coworkers and products, good CEO, competitive pay.

Cons

Hostile work environment- a few employees are allowed inappropriate bullying behaviors that cause entire teams to look for new jobs.
