Pros

- My work is valued and feels necessary to the company - All management, from direct up to C-level, support me on day-to-day concerns, are transparent with what they know vs what they're still figuring out, and agree about where the company should go and what we need to get there - All new management hires in 2022 are dedicated, have great experience, and have jumped in to solve challenges as soon and as much as possible - Product is genuinely interesting, albeit complex, and fits a big need in the market

Cons

- So few employees for so long means that only a handful of people were covering a lot of ground and doing a lot of work, which wasn't efficient and requires effort to break away from - Company and product strategy feels aligned at a high level, but hasn't totally trickled down in practice yet - Urgency has tended to outcompete efficiency/sustainability

Pros

- Strong Market Pull: Large, sophisticated customers clearly understand the value of exposure management and are actively investing to manage real cyber risk—not chasing buzzwords. - Meaningful, Hard Problems: The product addresses scale, complexity, and data challenges found only in very large enterprises. This is a tough problem space where many competitors struggle to execute. - High-Caliber, Improving Team: Talented engineers and product leaders who care about quality, delivery, and continuously improving how we build software—not just what we build. - Real Ownership and Impact: Engineers have meaningful ownership and can see their work directly affect customers, product direction, and company outcomes—especially at enterprise scale.

Cons

- High Intensity: The exposure management market is fast-moving and highly competitive, with consolidation and new entrants constantly raising the bar. The work is demanding because our customers rely on us to keep pace with an increasingly sophisticated threat landscape. - Ambiguity Comes with Scale: As the company and product continue to scale, some areas are still being clarified. Success requires comfort operating without perfect information and helping shape the path forward.

Pros

Some PPL Have Company Stock

Cons

I do not. This is a company that is living in the shadow of something that never really worked. THe software was designed for pushing and pulling data, NOT cybersecurity. And, it shows. This place is in total disarray and makes working at Target feel viable.
