Pros

Really cool office space. Pretty good kitchen with some decent food (all make it yourself, nothing catered or brought in). Cool bar with great views (sometimes the beer is out or not great choices)

Cons

Leadership just gets worse and worse. Management team except one has turned over in the past 18-24 months. Hard to tell which left or which were fired left because there is little transparency. Leadership (especially external) do a great job of stirring up problems and distracting everyone from doing real work to help the company be successful. Everyone wonders why anyone would want to bring the inefficiency of exceutive coaches, how can external folks be helping when the entire exec team is turning over? You can't trust ANYONE. Beware, everything you say goes directly to the CEO, there is no true confidentiality in any feedback you provide anyone (internal or external). CEO prides himself on knowing "everything" going on in the company and will go at great lengths to achieve this. It's funny - I was just looking at the company response to some of the poor reviews on Glassdoor and they just copy and paste the same response to multiple people - LOL HR can't even respond to reviews properly, they must not care.

Pros

Nice office area. Reasonable Pay. `Up and coming` security service. Tools are typically current.

Cons

Management / Team leads are not inspiring. No tolerance for learning. Recruitment sells you the moon; you get a moon pie. If you are not a 'one of the cool kids' your excluded.

Pros

Great culture, super smart CTO, great mission, excellent co-workers.

Cons

I was let go without warning. No performance issues, etc. They simply said it was a business decision and this is an at-will state. This is all true, however, this is the first time I have ever been let go from a company with zero reason given. Exit was cold and quick.
