Workaholic culture

Pros

For the most part, the people are good to work with. They're also willing to help and answer your questions when you have them. People are friendly and kind. The product is also good and I'm sure the company will be successful due to the continued demand for data security and privacy.

Cons

The most disorganized, workaholic culture. You can't say you support a good work life balance, and then also praise employees for working late all the time, or working with COVID--that's not actually valuing work life balance. Product doesn't communicate well with the rest of the organization, and this is true with many of the rest of the departments. There are no established processes for who is responsible for what, and people are always stepping on each other's toes, or worse, everybody is always pushing a task off to someone else. I've never worked in an organization with so little accountability. I've also found that when processes fail or things don't get done on time, people are quick to throw other teams/departments under the bus. Also, the amount of PTO given to employees is abysmal, just in general but especially compared to the rest of the tech industry. It's about 13 days a year for sick leave and vacation combined. No separate sick time bank. Considering I get sick at least 5-10 days a year, that's most of my PTO gone just from being sick. And no, working from home doesn't mean I can always work while sick. If I have the flu or COVID I'm going to be in bed.

Boys Club with 90’s sales mentality

Pros

Great software security risk mitigation solution

Cons

The culture is irretrievably broken-it’s a culture of lies. In fact I bet that all reviews after the May 18th review are phony and placed there by HR.

Pros

The technology is great and Varonis isn’t afraid to invest in developing

Cons

The culture is terrible led by the same people for the past 12 years. Engineering led, not sales led. Heavy metrics that don’t result in revenue. Stuck in a 1990’s sales motion, love to promote from within rather than bring in outside perspective and expertise. It is believed the long-standing leaders are the experts in selling Varonis and you will do as they say. If collaboration and empowerment is what you are seeking in a role, this would not be the place to find it.
