Rapid7 Reviews

Pros

the culture and people at rapid7 are amazing. I have been here for a few years and have found so many people willing to teach, learn, and grow with you. It has been my experience that if you work hard, Rapid7 will do their best to help you flourish in your career

Cons

Rapid7 is a fast pace environment that requires a lot of flexibility and change. It keeps things exciting, but can be frustrating when things change quickly and unexpectedly

Pros

They are an excellent company to work for and they have amazing core values that all employees follow. Best company I've ever worked for.

Cons

Can't think of anything that many cons to working at this place and that is no exaggeration.

Pros

Overall great team I’m with. Some select managers really do fight for you and help while others are struggling to survive.

Cons

Constant leave of great employees and severe underpay. While new hires are being offered top dollar. No yearly salary increases to keep up with inflation nor any other beneficial benefits. Company is trying to evolve but doesn’t take in consideration we are losing all the great hardworking people and putting the brunt of the work on the remainder. Meanwhile other employees that skirt by remain and hide and cause toxicity. This wasn’t the moose promise or culture when I first started.

Pros

The leaders at Rapid 7 are very kind. The technology that the company works with is cool to learn about.

Cons

The product team does not make improvements as fast as I'd like. This can make it hard when clients ask about new features that competitors have.

Pros

Salary is decent for Boston but low by tech standards Great benefits if covering for family

Cons

Rapid7 was pretty great in the past when it was smaller but has been struggling to get the right org. structure. Multiple teams are performing similar functions and are stepping on each other’s toes. The employees per million of revenue is very high compared to mature companies Siloed thinking. Too much politics and too top heavy. Flagship products have been lagging on the engineering end but are expected to still show strong sales.

Pros

Great company with a compelling product roster. Awesome people and culture Consistently challenges you to do more, cross teams and try on different hats.

Cons

Some cumbersome internal processes Growing pains moving from small to large enterprise

Pros

Locations are fantastic, people teams are amazing.

Cons

Silos exist wherever you are, however the checks and balances needed to prevent disruption to business at R7 are not well formed.

Pros

Nice people, caring managers, interesting industry. A few charismatic leaders, generally upper managers fight for their people at least up to director level. Unlimited time off in the US means you can have a month or more per year, no questions asked. A lot of good ideas, people here love to create new things, or at least they used to.

Cons

Tons of attrition in engineering teams, main product still has good userbase but customer dissatisfaction is high for big $$$ customers and leadership plan is so far purely responsive. Big project teams have been working on for years got canned because it was not well planned and badly resourced. The market is tough for everyone so not unique to Rapid7 but it's scary that they don't seem like they have a plan to replace/increase revenue from main VM market that is now flat or shrinking. More engineers leaving all the time, no hires to replace them. Only sales is hiring i guess. Lots of burnout, getting worse all the time. Generally low salaries.

Pros

Training, great people, amazing culture

Cons

tough sales process, lack of cohesion amongst sales reps

Pros

Cool team cool products overall great

Cons

None I can think of
