Pros

None. I worked with keeper when it was in early stage, so we had a small workplace with no facilities, except coffee.

Cons

CTO thinks everybody should know everything. Within couple of days he started threatening me with consequences. Glad that I was let go after a month because within 2 days I got better job paying twice than what keeper was offering.

Thank you for your feedback and your past efforts at Keeper. We work hard to deliver great results and I’m not satisfied when I hear a Team Member’s experience didn’t meet their expectations. Even if it’s been a several years since you were here, all feedback is valuable feedback because it helps us be better tomorrow than we are today. Our growth since you were here in the “early stages” required creativity, learning from our wins and mistakes, and evolving our team. And, I’m happy to say our perks have grown beyond the coffee maker you remember :). From the early days of bootstrapping this startup from a handful of dedicated people, Keeper has a great PTO program, amazing healthcare benefits, stocked kitchens with snacks and drinks, regular free lunches for our Team Members, team building events, and much more. Craig, and the entire Sr. Leadership Team, do have very high expectations for dedication, effort and results. We’re proud of that, and our Team Members have shared with us that they appreciate our candid and timely performance feedback. We expect greatness, because our customers and stakeholders demand it and the critical nature of our cybersecurity work require it. So, while it was not a great fit for you at Keeper, part of our role as leaders is to ensure you are happy and successful, even if that balance is achieved elsewhere. - John Pollak; VP; People & Talent

Pros

Salary seems really great until you start and realize there are absolutely no other benefits. They pressure you to sign the offer in less than a business day so that you don’t have time to read through the lack of benefits. They think that simply giving health insurance is a “huge benefit”.. as you can see by how they reply to existing reviews criticizing their lack of employee care. There is no 401k match, no expense portals for travel, no home office stipend (or any stipend at that), no paid holidays first the half of the year, no paternity leave, no maternity leave.. I could go on and on. This company was founded in 2011 and there’s no excuse to be this behind the curve, especially as a software company.

Cons

- Morale is extremely low. The CEO creates and fosters culture of fear and intimidation. There are no actual co workers, everyone works in silos and is terrified to be let go for no reason at all so it is a very solitary role, even if you work on a ‘team’. The leadership team is full of people who have no idea what they’re doing. Anyone they hire with any grain of real experience knows better and leaves this place ASAP. Everyone I know is actively looking to leave this place or they have 2 jobs or they are coasting for the paycheck.

Keeper is a high-growth, performance-oriented cybersecurity company with ambitious goals, and we strive to be transparent about the pace and expectations that come with that environment. While this type of workplace may not be the right fit for everyone, we are proud of the talented team we have built and the meaningful work our employees do every day to support our customers. We appreciate the feedback regarding benefits and have taken employee input into consideration as we continue to improve and expand our programs. Keeper remains focused on rewarding performance, supporting employee growth and building a strong, collaborative team as the company continues to scale.
