      Pros

      Mid- and Junior-level employees were amazing. Smart, hard-working, customer-centric.

      Cons

      Senior leadership is out of touch, lacks transparency, and rarely communicates major product and people changes promptly. Strategic direction changes at the drop of a hat. As a people manager, I was regularly discouraged from communicating with my own team. Favoritism rules. Senior leaders continue to toe the line of harassment and discrimination, particularly with employees with minority backgrounds. There were several layoffs in 2023, yet they are still hiring in some areas - why not interview current employees for those positions first?

      Pros

      * Differentiated technology platform with real-time intelligence capabilities, particularly in the physical security and threat detection space

      Cons

      * Frequent leadership changes have made it difficult to maintain consistent strategic direction * Company initiatives often reset before prior efforts fully mature, creating execution gaps * Senior leadership structure can feel top-heavy, which at times slows decision-making and accountability * Market positioning in cybersecurity may not be as strong or clearly differentiated as competitors * Organizational changes have led to disruption and uncertainty for employees during transition periods * In some cases, expectations during the hiring process did not fully align with the day-to-day reality of the role * Strategic messaging is strong, but execution and follow-through can lag behind stated priorities
