Pros

- The work is challenging (as is usual in such startups) with things that have not been tried before so there is something new to try and experiment always - Opportunity to interface with some top customers in the industry and get insight into how infosec works in such environments - Lots of talented folks with varied technical backgrounds, so opportunity to lean something new everytime - Cross-functional mature teams that have your back in times of crisis

Cons

- Folks are distributed all over earth, makes async communication challenging at times for me

Pros

- Flexibility and independence -- no one is going to tell you how to do your work, because others expect that you know what you're doing and that you'll make the appropriate decisions - Smart, friendly coworkers who are willing to help; I've learned a lot from my coworkers since joining - Good pay and benefits

Cons

ShiftLeft is a company for the right person; if you're not one who thrives in an environment where no one is watching you closely and can make decisions when there's some degree of uncertainty, I think you'll struggle a bit. Similarly, if you need things to be extremely well-defined, the start-up nature of ShiftLeft probably wouldn't work for you.

Pros

The founders, Vlad and Chetan took special care on employee well-being

Cons

We were building a product without no user validation at all that ended being not very useful
