Pros

Market - CrowdStrike is in an unbelievable growth-market. If you read the news, you’re aware that cyber security is a big problem. The market is $75 billion today and will be $175 billion in 2020 (Yes, that's $100bb in 3 years). Executive Team - CrowdStrike's executive team are industry veterans with deep industry experience. From vision to business connections, having founders who have been in the industry for decades has had a huge impact on our growth and trajectory. Culture - From my point of view, CrowdStrike's culture is one of both accountability and autonomy. Everyone really seems to care about the company's mission and the founders' vision. This helps create a "one team one dream" culture.

Cons

I am in the Bay Area office (Sunnyvale) and we are growing so quickly that we have run out of space on several occasions. This has caused less than ideal working conditions -- lack of desks, having to spill over into conference rooms, etc. That said, I have experienced the same problem before at another high-growth company, and it is a small price to pay to be apart of a rocket ship. Upper management has also acknowledged the situation and is being proactive and transparent about expansion plans.

Pros

Remote work culture Is excellent, innovative tech, company's growth and opportunities to protect clients. Felt fortunate to have worked for this organization that has a strong growth tragectoruy and protects clients.

Cons

Manager/Director level: Poor communication from team manager/director, with little to no direction and the lack of team morale. Team members were on their own after training and most meetings could've been an email. The presence of the director was the equivalent of a virtual bulletin board. No ownership was taken from management to lead or guide the team and no sense of loyalty exists between management and team members. Good talent was squandered due to complacency and lack of direction. Company: Con for the company is the unfortunate lay offs that happened after leaving the company. It's a shame they laid off veterans from my former team. The writing on the wall was apparent, from outsourced new hires to the non-competitive compensation for newer hires. The company went from a fun and competitive start up to a disconnected company trying to emulate tech industry trends and "balances the budget" AKA lay offs, to look good to share holders. For a company that nets huge profits year after year, layoffs shouldn't be part of the reality.
