Low point of my great career

Director
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Fast growth, great customer base, cyber security is hot, decent pay, saw some progress the last year I worked there.

Cons

Retention and culture is an issue. Beware of nepotism, politics, egos with no merit and stale leadership team. Benefits and fringe are weak. Sadly, first time I worked with low EQ colleagues. A lot of negative energy and a lot of people quitting or managed out.

Account Manager

Mid enterprise account manager
Recommend
CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

Products work as expected, industry leader in email and data protection. Ease of evaluations and quick to deploy make it easy to show the value.

Cons

Upper management only focuses on becoming a 'billion dollar company'. Majority of clients have the core products, not many clients need the peripheral services. This was a sales job hidden behind an account manager title. Clients are becoming more price conscious, while PFPT is extremely expensive, getting tough to justify value.
