Pros

The people are fun and work hard, your colleagues are motivated. You will learn a lot and interact with many different teams. Benefits are solid. The good managers are great. Open and accepting hiring practices. If you work hard and make sure you get noticed by the CEO, there is room for advancement.

Cons

Work-life balance is poor. Fires (metaphorical) come up often and they consume much of your time. Management can be unrealistic about how long certain tasks take. Turnover is very high, documentation low. Pay is lackluster. Business is run like it is still in a garage. Enterprise tools shunned in favor of cheap alternatives. Product stability is put secondary to new features, often based on CEO's favorite customers, not necessarily most requested.

Pros

In my 8 months of interning at OPSWAT, the work culture stood out like no other. From the first day I was greeted and welcomed by several people around the office. I always looked forward to team/office lunches and playing ping pong with my peers. I was also able to take on important projects and regularly meet with customers and prospects. Lastly, everyone wants you to succeed, and as an intern everyone is willing to help you grow. I have learned so much throughout my two sessions as a Product Manager Intern. I would recommend this position and OPSWAT to anyone as it is a great place to work.

Cons

I have no cons at all.

Pros

• Dedicated employees who are committed to the company’s success. • Opportunity to take ownership of meaningful work and make a visible impact. • Exposure to a growing cybersecurity company with a global presence. • Employees are trusted with significant responsibility and autonomy.

Cons

• Environment is heavily influenced by the CEO’s leadership style, which may not be a fit for everyone. It can be really intense. • Employees may be reluctant to raise concerns or challenge leaders out of fear. • PTO and holiday benefits are less competitive than those offered by many similarly sized companies. The limited amount of time off can make it challenging for employees to recharge and maintain long-term work-life balance.
