      Smoke in mirrors - things are NOT what they seem

      Manager
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      Cyber security is fast-paced and interesting. However, there are many vendors that offer the same products & services so there's nothing truly unique about BS security scores/ratings.

      Cons

      After significant layoffs, morale is at an all-time low and employees do not trust the direction of company given the uncertainty in the market and questionable new executive leadership hires over the past 8-9 months.

      nothing special about this company, culturally or competitively

      Business outlook

      Pros

      -the executives are approachable and friendly -pay is competitive -great office views -there are some great people working here -no micromanagement

      Cons

      -they will deny it until the bitter end, but competitors are legitimately a great alternative and cost a lot less -absurd pricing -aggressive turnover on the sales floor -excessive amount of middle management -free snacks do not mean you are a hip company -too much noise on the sales floor -some of the managers bring very little to the table -numbers have been very bad and weaknesses in leadership has become very clear, right up to the very top

      As the CEO of BitSight I have had the privilege of receiving many plaudits about the company's leadership, growth and success over the years. Of course, my role also means I should reflect on the areas we must improve - no matter how blunt the articulation of that improvement area is. I'm sorry you have had this experience with us, particularly as I don't think this reflects the norm on the sales floor. Clearly I am not approachable enough if feedback like this ends up on Glassdoor. We are growing quickly and successfully and there are times when I wish we were more aligned, but I will absolutely back my sales management team to the hilt when it comes to giving their best and working as a team. In the spirit of taking and giving feedback, I hope you have now moved on to a company that is a better fit for you. All teams need good leaders - we will be hard on ourselves and get better here.

      Long hours

      Anonymous employee
      Recommend
      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      There is nothing positive about working here.

      Cons

      Expected to work 10-12 hours a day. No work life balance. Never allowed to work from home. Everything is a fire, yet so many rules and checks, it slogs along like an old huge company. You are cc'd on every email that anyone in your department sends out, and you are cc'd on 3 other incoming departments emails. Not a pleasant work environment, unfriendly, unhappy people.

      We are sorry you feel this way about BitSight. This is not our intent nor culture. We strongly encourage you to speak with anyone in HR or in Senior Leadership, who you are most comfortable with, to better understand and address your concerns.
