Pros

good people, ability to work remote

Cons

Culture of fear, the title you walk in with is the title you keep (even if you're doing an amazing job), furloughs, no raises, no bonuses, 24/7 work day, work eves/weekends/holidays, elitist executive leadership team, decision by committee (so it takes weeks to get simple tasks done), "be happy you have a job" attitude, culture of drones and zombies

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.
