Great Company

Pros

Great compensation with unlimited upside. Very generous base and great commission package. Unlimited PTO. C-levels are very thoughtful in decision making processes.

Cons

Management can tend to micromanage. Often times they'll want "busy work" done that seems excessive and unnecessary. Just allow sales people to do what they do best instead of occupying their time with unnecessary tasks.

Pros

- On an important mission, fights cyber criminals everyday - Strong executive leadership, CEO, CFO and Product leaders are extremely hands on, approachable and low ego people - Products are loved by customers - Fast pace of innovation, strong bias towards action - Lots of autonomy to product builders - Compensation and stock refreshers are high for strong performers

Cons

- Not very strategic, short term thinking to some extent - Needs to place bigger bets, should have bought a large cloud security vendor instead of acquiring multiple early stage startups especially when they were late to the market - Company is not designed to scable,
