Pros

- Good Tech - Passionate CEO with a vision everyone buys in to. - Great Corporate Leaders (if you’re in the states)

Cons

- Talent dropping like fly’s and more to follow soon. - Favouritism when it comes to promotion (The more children you have the likelier you inherit a leavers pipeline despite not being close to target) - No action taken after 15 or more negative Exit interviews all regarding a common theme - no need to mention the common theme but I’d recommend getting in contact with any ex CrowdStrike corporate heads and they’ll provide further detail. - SMB team leadership have no closing experience. Promoted from within to maintain control of corporate function. If you’re a manager who is not a ‘yes man’ to the VP, you’ll either get fired or leave on you’re own accord to somewhere where you’ll have more trust , autonomy and likely double the pay too. - Company will under pay you and try and tell you that this is because the product is so sellable. Recently 5 high performing sales reps have resigned and CrowdStrike decided not to re- fill their heads - a clear sign that they over employed to begin with and no one had a strong chance of reaching target. - Not a single SMB rep has hit their annual target before . Avoid position like the plague as you’ll get publicly embarrassed on team calls by senior leadership and spoken to like you belong in a bin. - Strange/‘try hard’ effort being made by current leadership to treat employees with more respect following recent departures. This will be temporary and then go back to normal as always. - Reps have been instructed to phone partners 23 times in one day - non humane selling behaviour. - I’ve ruined relationships with senior IT leaders because of pressure tactics forced on me from above. - IPO has saled at CrowdStrike and that accompanied with below industry pay and a unsavoury culture means you should look elsewhere. The internal politics are not worth joining this place.

Pros

Could not find any Pros

Cons

* India leadership is bad. They are just puppets controlled by people sitting in US. * When you join the company they will show you all the rosy pictures but what comes to India is a left over work. Development of the core product is never going to happen out of India. Its just the side work that gets done out of India office. * No job security. If you don't agree to their slavery rules, you will be thrown out of the company. * You don't get credit for your work. Lot of politics. * Difference in how Indian & foreign employees are treated. Indian employees are considered sub-standard.

Pros

Great EDR product, happyish customers, great to work in if you want to learn security. Lots of marketing dollars to generate sales interest which means if you work hard you'll make commission. CEO - 5/5 - Crowdstrike the company will do really well regardless - key word being the company.

Cons

- incredibly immature workforce. - leaders are all at presidents club while the peons are struggling to make qouta. - secrecy and hidden agendas. Chinese whispers on a daily basis, the water cooler rumors are ripe in this company. - anything other than their EDR + AV product is half cooked and demonstrated through smoke and mirrors. - very unhappy employee base, most are just sticking around for the IPO.

Thank you for your feedback. It’s disappointing to hear your experience at CrowdStrike hasn’t been entirely positive. Our goal is to create an environment where everyone feels valued and supported. We’re sorry to hear we fell short on that for you.
