Pros

I frankly did expect that Egnyte will be such a great place to work! The best thing here are the people - friendly, helpful and really fun to work with. I also really like that it's a startup but which is managed in a stable way that gives you confidence that your job is safe here and that things will only get constantly better. The tech stack is really big in every way and gives you a lot of opportunities to learn and make things better (as of now 100+ engineers working on tens of apps in Java, Python, Goland, deployed in 3 physical datacenters + cloud, a lot of automation and great use of open source).

Cons

As this is >10 years old tech company it does have some legacy tech which is a pain. Some architectural decisions are not pretty. Some people are still working "the old way".

Pros

Great benefits and great people to work with. The product itself is a great and superior product.

Cons

No training. No pipeline. No real support for SMB. You are basically a glorified SDR. Any real leads come from events or if you have good install base accounts. Hardly any good inbounds come and and if you do get a good and decent size inbound, they take it away from you to give to a mid-market rep. The juice isn't worth the squeeze. If you don't mind constantly grinding, go for it. Otherwise, I would recommend looking else where.
