Pros

Everyone in my department is supportive and helpful- genuinely one of the healthiest environments I've ever worked in. Toxic behavior is not tolerated and management promotes a collaborative culture within teams instead of a competitive one. Management has reasonable expectations, and they are very encouraging and supportive of independent ideas. No micro-management. The work itself can be fast-paced and you are expected to do a lot of independent learning to fulfill your tasks, but it's balanced out with great work-life balance and flexibility. One of the few workplaces that doesn't seem to cause anxiety in their workers.

Cons

Since most of us work remote, it'd be nice if CrowdStrike helped with ergonomics/chairs etc, which they don't currently do.

Pros

Remote work culture Is excellent, innovative tech, company's growth and opportunities to protect clients. Felt fortunate to have worked for this organization that has a strong growth tragectoruy and protects clients.

Cons

Manager/Director level: Poor communication from team manager/director, with little to no direction and the lack of team morale. Team members were on their own after training and most meetings could've been an email. The presence of the director was the equivalent of a virtual bulletin board. No ownership was taken from management to lead or guide the team and no sense of loyalty exists between management and team members. Good talent was squandered due to complacency and lack of direction. Company: Con for the company is the unfortunate lay offs that happened after leaving the company. It's a shame they laid off veterans from my former team. The writing on the wall was apparent, from outsourced new hires to the non-competitive compensation for newer hires. The company went from a fun and competitive start up to a disconnected company trying to emulate tech industry trends and "balances the budget" AKA lay offs, to look good to share holders. For a company that nets huge profits year after year, layoffs shouldn't be part of the reality.
