Imperva Reviews

Pros

Supportive leadership Team members work like family

Cons

No cons that I can think of

Pros

I learned a lot of red flags to look for next time.

Cons

You will be underpaid, and the teams will be understaffed. You'll be told there's a hiring freeze when sales is always getting new people and every quarter they brag about record sales. These additional customers will stretch you thinner and thinner until they break you. The company has no respect for any of the engineering staff.

Pros

Coworker's are the best, product vision is amazing (execution is lagging). Culture feels like a family.

Cons

Imperva's investor, Thoma Bravo, is heavily vested in Sam Bankman-Fried and FTX. He's lost a ton of money, and it's resulting in unnecessary cuts. The best people I've seen come into the company are being unscrupulously axed.

Pros

Everyone from the CEO on down is always willing to jump in to support customers. It's a fairly flat organization, no ego driven hierarchy, just do what it takes to get it done.

Cons

It's a small company compared to past places I've worked, but there's no less "work." Not necessarily a bad thing as you own your process, but some could experience it as a con.

Pros

They have a plethora of products that enables security by design for organizations

Cons

They are too metric driven which makes everyone want to compete instead of work together on the team

Pros

over all the company is trying. There's usually a lot of autonomy in your work. It's a fully remote company in the US. Benefits are industry standard. They have a good maternity/paternity leave policy. Good company match on the 401k.

Cons

There's a lot of turnover

Pros

Good people who want good outcomes for customers. Customer centric. No politics

Cons

Have not found them yet

Pros

Product is good, but no one knows anything about it.

Cons

There is a culture of 25-30 wealthy far-left women than control everything at the company, and Whiteness and Maleness is discouraged.

Pros

Many people weren’t ready for all the change that came after the acquisition, but after being here for many years, I can honestly say that most of the changes were NEEDED if we wanted to stay in business. Personally, I think the new leadership is taking Imperva in the right direction.

Cons

Not so much a con as a piece of advice: people tend to fear change because they’re too comfortable in their own ways. Don’t get stuck in that frame of thinking.

Pros

Most people like knowing that working for their employer means self-empowerment, growth and appropriate compensation for hard work. Imperva's culture encourages professional growth for all its employees and compensates accordingly if you work hard toward achievable goals, and especially if those goals challenge you toward positive growth. I have been with Imperva since 2017 and have since enjoyed 2 promotions. The effort I put towards achieving these promotions had a great deal to do with thinking proactively about the business, looking at areas for opportunity, and taking the initiative towards setting achievable goals. If an employee puts an effort into thoughtful and strategic change, there's plenty of support towards achieving that in this organization. Among the benefits you enjoy at Imperva include: cross-functional team collaboration, managerial support for thoughtful change, good compensation, work/life balance, flexible remote versus office attendance, opportunity to travel, global presence, professional growth and advancement. In summary, if you are seeking an employer where you can be a source for change, grow your professional skillset, and make an impact, Imperva is a great place for that.

Cons

If a paycheck is all you want, then you might find it difficult to work here. Imperva is ideal for people who are self-starters, and self-motivators. You won't find a lot of people here willing to micro-manage which is a great thing for skills growth and positioning for advancement opportunities.
