Pros

It is awesome to get to wake up everyday, and contribute to making the world a safer place! The people at Coalfire are truly what make this place great - there are some crazy smart people, (I learn something new everyday!) and everybody is able and willing to help each other. Leadership is worth following, and hard work is recognized and rewarded!

Cons

The compensation is not bad, but it is below what I have seen as the market average for comparable sales roles.

Pros

- Real client-facing technical work in regulated/FedRAMP environments; good exposure if compliance-heavy cloud is your lane. - Internal mobility exists on paper; managers may encourage internal candidates for promotions. - New management clearly understands their assignment and is saying the right things and taking initial steps that appear to be moving us towards a strong path forward.

Cons

- Promotion paths can be unstable; roles may get restructured mid-process, which makes career planning hard. - Management quality is uneven; promotion into management isn't always tied to demonstrated leadership, technical capability, or appropriate vision. - Limited structured professional development. - Compensation progression can be a friction point, including for internal moves. - Bonus payouts have come in far below target even for top performers, which has been rough.
