Compensation below market value. No equity.
For a tech company benefits are terrible. Very high deductibles for all plans, high monthly cost. It may be better to forego benefits depending on where you live and get your own plan or use a spouses/partner's plan instead.
The company was deceptive in the way they described their 401k/IRA plans. You don't see the match until the year-end. For those that leave Dec 31st or prior, you forfeit the entire year of matching.
Too much movement in the upper management levels. C level folks still there, which is shocking. Lots of turnover in the lower ranks as well.
Had to travel to sales training that started on a Friday, through the weekend, into the next week. Never seen this before.
False/empty promises common, search reviews or speak to current or previous employees. False promises regarding money/promotions etc.
The hiring of friends instead of qualified talent.
Forcepoint is a conglomeration of several different companies, with different cultures, this has caused friction and with the differences of cultures/backgrounds, other issues: "Pockets" of knowledge, not allowing others into some circles, selling products that benefit short term sales rather than selling the right product to build long term relationships. These types of sales teams have to go.
Bad decisions regarding product integration, go to market strategy, sales team region/account mapping.
I've seen some of the negative reviews disappear. Strange. I would say nearly all of them are accurate. The 5-star reviews are VERY suspect.
