Pros

Great compansations. Lots of data, lots of technologies. Good people.

Cons

In my time CI and dev-ops were really behind, CI was always red up to release date. I hear they improved since then. Also they always had the filling of "lets invent everything and not use open-source" resulting in many in house tools.

Genuinely collaborative culture with talented, supportive colleagues across sales, marketing, and technical teams. * Strong work-life balance and flexibility compared to many companies in the cybersecurity industry. * Meaningful products and technology with a strong reputation in the market. * Employees are trusted to own their work without excessive micromanagement. * Good benefits and a people-first culture that generally prioritizes employee well-being.

Cons

As a large organization, decision-making can sometimes be slow and require alignment across multiple stakeholders. * Organizational changes and shifting priorities occasionally create uncertainty. * Cross-functional processes can be complex, which can impact speed of execution.
