Pros

Compensation and benefits were good. There are some good individual contributors there, but are getting fewer and farther between. If you are in the right location (Silicon Valley, Denver, Pune) it could be an OK gig for a little while.

Cons

They don't care about the employees any more. Communication from management is poor. Strategies change too often. They have very few new products in the pipeline. And the products they do have never seem to get to completion before the exec change plans / direction. Compnay is surviving on old technology and products.

Pros

The company used to care about customers, but they removed all the sales people who actually visited and consulted with customers to save travel cost.

Cons

The company's newest CEO, Patrick, only cares about getting back to a Cybersecurity company as fast as possible. Can't sell the company fast enough, but buyers can't get past due diligence periods.
