Pros

Its an exciting product and in an industry that is growing - the notion of cyber security is one that wider society I genuinely dont think has graspded properly yet to be honest. I say to friends and family 'if you understood what the team do here, you would be rooting for them to succeed' as we all have a vested interest in orgs like Snyk making the digital world a safe place to be and exist. More broadly as an employer, the culture is great. Dont get me wrong, like I said in the title its not perfect (more below) but there is a high level of expertise and intellect with everyone you meet, and in terms of collaboration across regions and teams its pretty good. Compared to previous orgs as well it is a place that will allow and support flexibility as long as you deliver on what you say you will/your team intends to. As a parent, I find this invaluable - I have so much less anxiety around taking time to support my child in the BAU of school/work/life than previous orgs. Final thing - its moves FAST. I love that but you should be aware of that as part of the experience here. Autonomy can be found but it comes alongside accountability - so as long as you are comfortable delivering on what you put your hand up for you will thrive. At least thats how I feel about my time here!

Cons

Change is inevitable - in this industry and especially given wider macroeconomic conditions - so being able to adapt and work with that in a place like this is important. Just my own view, but this is as much about how you manage your perspective - it is truly an Agile environment in terms of how it operates, and I have found it helpful to live with the ethos of 'the plan is not important but the planning is' - so as anyone thinking of walking in or accepting a role, just be aware of what you will need to say 'no' to in order to take advantage of the great projects you might want to say a 'hell yeah!' to : ) So technically I would not describe the above as a 'Con' personally - just the reality of working in a scale-up-to-enterprise environment.
