Pros

the people. the only reason i stayed so long was the amazing team i worked with. they keep losing people and you have opportunities to take ownership on things you would never get exposed to at other companies.

Cons

horrible benefits, no 401K match, no bonus, no annual increases for about 3 yrs in ago across the board.

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.
