Pros

Remote positions available. Flexible PTO and matching 401k Laptop provided

Cons

No longer a people first environment Horrible communication post acquisition the reorganization and layoffs were sloppy Individuals are being fired under false narratives to be able to post position at lower salary. No longer about quality as much as it is about making the most money while paying employees the least possible LOW salaries overall

Pros

The product provides real customer value, which made it easier to support and have productive conversations with clients. I enjoyed the work. * Strong product-market fit; customers saw clear value in the platform. * Customer conversations were generally easier because the product solved a real problem. * Well-known brand in the cybersecurity space with recognizable customers. * Interesting problem space in digital risk protection / threat intelligence. * Opportunity to work with customers facing real-world security challenges. * Good environment for learning about external attack surface management, phishing, impersonation, and threat workflows.

Cons

I was laid off due to role elimination shortly after receiving excellent performance feedback, with no warning whatsoever. Regardless of business decisions, the way this was handled gave me no chance to prepare for the financial impact. If employment stability and transparent communication matter to you, factor that into your decision. This company will continue to choose AI over people every time. * Little to no warning around layoffs or role eliminations. * Strong performance does not necessarily correlate with job security. * Limited transparency around employment decisions that significantly affect employees’ lives.
