Pros

Good stepping stone into cybersecurity product space

Cons

- zero bonuses for staff, sales not hitting numbers due to unrealistic sales target and lack of support/help - executives have no idea how to encourage/motivate/strategize with team - product team is out of touch with market, unable to respond to competition in a meaningful manner beyond a datasheet putting them down, always having to respond reactively to the competition's product releases - staff leaving in droves due to lack of help/support, positions not backfilled and existing staff do not want to risk recommending friends - poor health insurance coverage - made acquisition that made zero sense, from a strategic or product demand perspective, resulting in almost zero sales, ridiculed internally, as well as by market players - bunch of key staff in the inner circle have been allowed to travel the world on the company's expense providing minimal value, while the rest are getting critical expenses cut/restricted - losing market share, unable to invest in headcount, let alone backfill staff who have left, leaving the rest overworked and frustrated, slippery slope

Pros

The actual work itself was interesting enough, I guess.

Cons

The real problem is nobody here actually acknowledges what you do. you could ship something solid, fix something broken, go above and beyond - and nothing. It's not that they ignore you on purpose, it's more like the culture just doesn't have room for " hey, good job." You get your paycheck, sure, but there's this constant feeling that your contributions are just expected background noise, which honestly gets old fast. What kills you is watching the same patterns everywhere - people putting in effort and management acts like it never happened, so after a while you stop caring because what's the point.

Thank you for sharing this feedback. We are glad to hear that you found the work itself interesting, but we are sorry that your experience left you feeling that your contributions were not seen or appreciated. Recognition is an important part of a healthy employee experience, and we understand how discouraging it can feel when effort, follow-through, or strong results are perceived as expected rather than acknowledged. That is not the culture we want to build. We are continuing to focus on strengthening manager effectiveness, improving communication, and creating more consistent ways to recognize meaningful contributions across the company. We know that appreciation needs to happen in day-to-day interactions, not just through formal programs or compensation.
