Pros

A leader in the managed security field; Gartner Magic Quadrant leader year after year; startup feel; diverse employee population; open minded to new ideas. Luckily Dell kept them semi-separate. I would work for/with them again, especially if Dell spins them off.

Cons

Bought by Dell; implemented monotonous, slow processes.

Business Outlook

Pros

The salary was good and colleagues friendly and helpful. Dell Secureworks allow flexitime and flexi place working. The company has a commitment to diversity and non discrimination which seems to be reflected in the variety of staff in the Edinburgh office (Though there were no West Indians, Africans, South America etc). Training was provided if there was a short term need for it.

Cons

Chaotic upper management out of touch with problems at lower levels. Excessive bureaucracy, process more important than progress. Unnecessarily complex processes and too many processes - Someone started a process to remove unnecessary processes. No scope for long term development of technical staff and very limited scope for transfer from technical to managerial stream: managers had management jobs sewn up and none were advertised internally. Constant need to market yourself within the company and team. Colleague were friendly but tended to OCD which delayed progress. Agile was badly implemented. Management unable to detect signs of burnout.
