Pros

RSA has been a great place of growth and innovation. Lots of opportunity for growth. Excellent work/life balance.

Cons

Uncertainty from day to day gets stressful RSA is going through large changes right now with the purchase of EMC by Michael Dell and even before. RSA has moved from making huge impact on the industry to more of a services company. They have little impact on the day to day of the security industry anymore.

Quarter-to-quarter management

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Flexible working schedules. No problem working from home. Compensation about average. Salary is divided between base and bonus. Some managers think the bonus is automatic and some don't. Company says it is not automatic.

Cons

Any long term plan is abandoned at first sign of difficulty. EMC (parent company) seems to manage resources (i.e., people) on a quarter-to-quarter basis: layoffs are frequent. Lots of management politics. New products are not bringing in the revenue of the old standby - SecurID - and even that product in bringing in less and less. Always lots of talk of EMC selling RSA.

Pros

Good EMC benefits programs and reasonable pay

Cons

RSA is in a sad state. the company is in a thriving market but the leadership is incompetent and the employees don't care anymore. layoffs are conducted every 6 months and the turnover of employees and leaders is insane. vp for engineering has joined from Symantec that thinks he is better than everyone else at the company.
