Some of the people are quite nice and friendly. Office location is good thou the office itself is just OK. Salary compensation is decent, not competitive but acceptable.

The workplace relies heavily on outdated technology and methods. Development planning is controlled by product management, which in turn is heavily influenced by Sales. Sales dictates the priorities across the board. The atmosphere varies among colleagues—some are friendly, others distant, and a few seem to be gathering information for potentially negative purposes. Departments outside of Sales are notably understaffed. Access to information is limited, knowledge is fragmented among different groups, and collaboration tends to be transactional, often contingent on immediate benefits unless directly overseen by management. This environment may not be suitable for those interested in working with cutting-edge technology or modern methodologies. In a security company context, much of the security responsibility falls on a single individual who already juggles multiple roles within the organization. The company culture & management discourages showing any signs of struggling mental health, and individuals risk repercussions, including termination, for displaying signs of weakness or vulnerability. Paid time off (PTO) and sick leave policies are inadequate. There is significant dissatisfaction stemming from the CEO's strong opposition to remote work.
