Toxic Environment

Pros

- Benefits (time off, health, etc) - Some of the people you work with

Cons

- Management: I always was treated like I didn't know what I was doing and micromanaged. I was also told that I needed to "show my worth" to be kept around. - Disorganized goals (no 2 teams are trying to accomplish the same thing) - Very outdated systems- which is weird because they are a software company - No clear advancement path (seems to only promote white women/men) - Was in a flexible environment until we got a new leader and had mandatory time requirements (meaning i had to be in office for a specific time and had to take lunch)

Strong engineering team

Pros

From a 3 year current engineering employee with experience at multiple startups and mid/large companies: * Seasoned engineering leaders in mgmt and architecture that value solutions over ego and results over panic. * Several different products to work on provide lateral team or technology opportunity. * Engineering mgmt focused on empowerment, so squads own development process plus production and ship quickly using public and private clouds for development. * Flexible work life balance * Real ML and big data opportunities with extensive data sets and computing clusters. * Numerous skilled, long term employees willing to help you with problems or provide information

Cons

* Since it's a security company, internal controls are significant, which can be a pain point for those not used to such a highly mature environment. * Extensively collaborative scrum/squad/agile teamwork means that team members have to proactively work with managers on development plans in order to identify opportunities to shine.
