Pros

Strong HQ Leadership, Great Value Service. Multiple Products, Growing Security Market. Opportunity to continue lead the SaaS market. Good Press coverage.

Cons

Too many sales layers for opportunity base, not enough investment in local marketing, BDR and User Community. Core market is commoditized and product differentiation from major players is shrinking. Declining opportunity to overachieve.

Pros

Fast, fast growth, 30%+ per year Management team has taken the company from zero to 5th largest security company in the world. Opportunities to get your hands dirty in all sorts of things good work life balance (in most departments). Above average comp Company takes very good care of it's people. Products actually work, and work better than the competitors. Company has cleared out a lot of deadwood management.

Cons

Some departments better than others No 401k match Large-company experience and politics are creeping in, some favoritism.
