Pros

Flexible work location and time Decent Pay Friendly co-workers Great Learning Environment Not stressful

Cons

Not the most competitive pay. Lots of layoffs and not many hires to replace layoffs. Average age of workforce is getting high - has to do with not hiring many new employees Business mentality is a bit aged/old school corporate style Yearly reviews force each group to be in a bell curve even if everyone is a great worker or everyone is a poor worker in a group. Some will always be marked as Great and some will always be Poor. Too many acquisitions which has lead to too many similar products - this is being worked on to reduce the issue at least. Due to so many products, most employees don't even know what products we make. Training is inconsistent as it is all based off who your direct manager is rather than being some organized training throughout the company or business unit.

Pros

The company used to care about customers, but they removed all the sales people who actually visited and consulted with customers to save travel cost.

Cons

The company's newest CEO, Patrick, only cares about getting back to a Cybersecurity company as fast as possible. Can't sell the company fast enough, but buyers can't get past due diligence periods.
