Pros

Marcin (the CEO) is a good leader and really is trying to be transparent. I am happy to see he is still in charge of his baby.

Cons

The executive team has been failing to execute the company strategy. They pretend they know what they are doing, but in fact, there is a lot of chaos and uncertainty that leads to burnout for the individual contributors across the company. The management cares about short-term profits and bonuses instead of driving the company to innovation and long-term success.

Pros

I would have given a zero rating if I could.

Cons

The ship is sinking fast, jump before it pulls you down with it! Most of the executive staff are gone & the CEO has no authority anymore. The CEO doesn't care that it's happening since he's spending time posting on his social media about purchasing lavishing gifts/trips for himself/girlfriend/friends. Many of his social media friends are his employees/ex-employees so they see this. He doesn't care for them, he's just looking to make money. Why are you loyal to someone who doesn't have your best interest at heart? He's not able to shelter/protect you any longer.

Thanks for your review. It's disappointing that you've had such experience working with us. This is the opposite of how we as a company want our former employees to feel. I do hope you were able to share your thoughts with your lead, or the People team before you left. In case if you are up for a confidential chat, please feel free to reach out directly employerbrand@malwarebytes.com so we could connect. Kind regards, Elvi

Underpaid with constant changing direction

Pros

Great people CEO is transparent but nothing that's being shared sounds that great or makes sense. Ability for hybrid/remote work. Healthcare benefits are good.

Cons

Unlimited PTO (Seemed great at first, but now realizing it's not that great. Being understaffed makes it difficult or you feel guilty for taking time off, that I take less time off than I would have accrued at a traditional place. I would feel better departing from the company with all my PTO being paid out. Company direction is constantly changing. Don't really know what we're doing. We are just headless chickens in a room on fire. I'm just waiting for something good to happen. Product is decent but full of bugs. Extremely high turnover. Underpaid, high performing employees do not feel recognized. 401k match low.
