Pros

The culture within Intelligence Services is great very collaborative, coworkers come from diverse backgrounds and all walks of life, which helps us bounce ideas and expertise off of each other. Outside of when an account is at risk or due for renewal, work life balance is good and we get to set our own schedule. Unlimited PTO is actually used here! Internal processes are undergoing some big changes, but overall the work is engaging, challenging, and there's always something new to deal with.

Cons

Base salary could be better, and the bonus structure is quite flawed. Bonuses are based on customer retention numbers that are unrealistic (especially in current economic climate) and also dependent on Sales' performance. Don't count on getting the bonus if you work here. Career growth could be better defined and more consistent across teams.

Pros

-Good salary, but the benefits could improve, especially 401K.

Cons

Where to begin? Recorded Future has become an absolute mess of a workplace, particularly on the go-to-market side of the business. The sales team lost a huge percentage of its highest performing reps last year and constantly turns over management. Sales/marketing ops has lost so many people it almost doesn't exist at this point. Marketing has lost its best ICs and several key leaders. The GTM org is hobbling along, completely bereft of actual leadership, and with expectations so out of touch with reality, you'll start to wonder if anyone upstairs has ever led a revenue org before. Exec leadership is a mess. Several execs are needlessly, unproductively combative/unkind and provide their departments with little support. For some reason, RF is viewed by leadership less as a software company and more as an unofficial branch of the military/intelligence apparatus, with an unnecessary degree of unsmiling seriousness applied to everything. This culture of beating down employees has resulted in the departure of nearly every top performer that was holding most crumbling teams together, resulting in a pace of movement so glacial, you'd think you actually ARE working for the US government.
