Pros

I am very surprised how people are willing to help out when asked. Everyone seems to be focused on making the company succeed and It is very refreshing to work in an organization where everyone is is moving the same direction. I could not be happier with my decision.

Cons

Joining the company while all the back office systems are being changed due to the Fishnet/Accuvant merger has been a bit of a challenge, but I have been involved in M/A activities at other companies that have been far worse. The dust will settle and all will be well.

Pros

Unlimited PTO Supportive Management Depending on who you get Good work life balance as long as you don't take the job with you after hours Work from Home Hands on Training - could still use improvement Annual pay increase

Cons

2 layoffs in a year when they keps saying everything was fine.... Laying off core contributors so now everyone who is left is doing the work of 2-3 people and not being compensated accordingly Only way to get a worth while pay increase is to move up in the company the annual increases are not inline with inflation or cost of living
