      Brian Ahern is the worst human being I have ever met.

      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      There were really great people. Some still are. Some got laid off while standing next to me.

      Cons

      In my short time at Threat Stack my boss told my team that its only "ugly" women who claim sexual assault/harassment in reference to the Brett Kavanaugh issue. He also wouldn't show up for work and would get mad when we asked why. He made racist comments to a team member and also told another team member to "put down the Frosted Flakes" before he gets diabetes. I went to my boss's boss and then directly to Brian Ahern (there was no HR at the time). Brain Ahern promised me it would be addressed and not to fear retaliation. The next day my boss was fired. The next week I was laid off. Btw, I worked for Brian's last company for 6 years and came on to ThreatStack after Brian personally reached out to me. For the record, 4 of the 6 people on my team made formal complaints about the same issues I detailed above.

      Enron had better management

      CEO approval
      Business outlook

      Pros

      They haven't run out of funding yet... so they can still pay your paycheck

      Cons

      Everything. The company is swamped with debt, poor product, poor management and absolutely NO care about their customers. Brian Ahern is a worse CEO than Jeffrey Skilling of Enron. He makes poor decisions without thinking about the consequences and then blames his employees. The turnover at the company has been astronomical seeing as they are limiting sales pipeline and firing customers under a specific contract threshold. He only cares about getting the company sold, but no one wants to buy a company with an awful product. He claims that he doesn't care about Glassdoor reviews but then pressures management to write positive reviews to make it look like a respectable place to work. THE WORST HUMAN ALIVE.

      Pros

      None, "Run Away" Monty Python style.

      Cons

      Toxic work environment. Both the founders left the company, and none of the leadership have a security background. How is this possible for a security company?

      Thank you for your review of Threat Stack. It’s unfortunate that it did not work out for you here, but as we tell all our applicants, Threat Stack is “not for everyone”. Please know that while our founders have moved on to new initiatives, Jen Andre still remains an active member of our Board of Directors. As for current leaderships lack of “security background”, a search on linked in will show our current CEO, Brian Ahern, brought his last start-up, Industrial Defender, a leader in security, compliance and change management, to a success acquisition in 2014. While we may not be perfect, we strive to make our employees feel like a priority and it’s our fault for your unhappy experience. As will continue to strive to make Threat Stack a driver in the cyber security space, we hope you will reconsider us in the future. Please follow us at #threatstack or if you would like to learn more about our career roles as they happen, follow #threatstackers. Best of luck in your future endeavors.
