Pros

Company had a decent culture but not as good as they make it seem. Work life balance was good Great growth potential Pretty cool in-house built technology for SASE Great team with knowledge around Microsoft's security suite.

Cons

I came over as part of a merger with another company in March 2021. Upon the merger, previous service offerings were removed from the portfolio and all the deals I worked on scrapped regardless of where they were at in the pipeline. This caused a snowball effect as the sales org started becoming more lean since no deals were closed. Once this happened, recognized my days were numbered. No feedback was provided ever on performance Opportunities went to people that were favored by upper management Cut out of opportunities mid deal Main Services department is stretched thin to cover all clients Change in direction was pretty common so hard to understand what was supposed to be sold.
