Pros

While others have spoken about a detrimental work environment here at ZScaler, I couldn't disagree more. There is passion and excitement about what we are doing here. We do run at breakneck speed at times, however that is hardly the exclusive purview of ZScaler in Silicon Valley. While I am asked to produce, the support and encouragement is there and I don't feel that the environment prevents me from being successful.

Cons

You can work at a Cisco or other large companies and get by with minimal effort. That isn't the case here. If people see that as a negative than this isn't the place for them.

Pros

Zscaler’s bread and butter products are great. Excellent pay and benefits. Fast growing technology

Cons

Toxic Mid Level Management looking out for themselves. Employees are easily expendable. Company seems fixated on stock prices and losing its focus on making happy customers. Diabolical review practices. My whole team received reviews from our manager. The SVP of the group then lowered everyone’s rating down a full level without any feedback or reason. The same SVP then laid us all off a few months later.
