Pros

If you want to be bullied, shouted at, belittled in front of your colleagues then this is the place for you. The Solution was ahead of its rivals but that edge has been eroded massivley and the growth that industry analysts have been told to expect wont be seen anytime soon! A Sales Management Team with a reputation in the IT industry for being arrogant, rude and so full of self importance that you would think they have found a cure for cancer has been parachuted in.

Cons

Too many to mention but account allocation being weighted in favour of the new team to the point that deals that were due to close in weeks are taken away from people who did all the hard work and given to the newbies, being told that you ahve to work evenings and weekends are just two. The people and culture team are just there to paper over the cracks and post "uplifting posts to Linkedin" which are totally at odds with what the culture is really like. They dont want to listen to genuine concerns and are constantly asking staff to post great reviews on here to balnce the percentage of bad reviews with good, they do this from a few weeks into an emploee joining the company then management almost stand over them to ensure it follows the party line. All of the longtime succesful salespeople bar two in the UK have left.

Pros

Zscaler’s bread and butter products are great. Excellent pay and benefits. Fast growing technology

Cons

Toxic Mid Level Management looking out for themselves. Employees are easily expendable. Company seems fixated on stock prices and losing its focus on making happy customers. Diabolical review practices. My whole team received reviews from our manager. The SVP of the group then lowered everyone’s rating down a full level without any feedback or reason. The same SVP then laid us all off a few months later.
