    Websense Anonymous in Los Gatos, CA:   (Past Employee - 2009)

    Pros

    Great space to be in
    Good technololgy - when it works
    Fantastic parties/kick-off
    Some good people left - but not many

    Cons

    Management takes zero responsibilites for thier own actions
    Lot's of backstabbing and politics
    You never know where the next bullet is coming from
    Not much work life balance

    Advice to Senior Management

    Please fire yourself upon the next RIF and save the company some money!

    “Decent place to work if you need stable income, but sometimes feels like a Dilbert cartoon.”
