I have worked as an Information Security Consultant for DataShield for over 3 years - Senior Implementation Consultant DataShield Employee Review

- Great environment - Great Projects - Great culture - We always have time to do some research before we start with our regular tasks

- No cons at this time

Datashield is a small company with some big talent. I was with the company for little less than one year, but in that time I learned a great deal. That was largely due to the knowledge of my co-workers and the fact that it was a small company, so you had to learn to do more with less. Don't take the "less" comment as any kind of disparaging remark. As I said, they are a small (start-up) company and their infrastructure is still maturing. There is a great deal of passion for the company and for security as a whole at DataShield and it is my belief that this is what drives them and will make them succeed. Pros: - Core group of very talented professionals. - People in management positions that have worked in and understand IT/Security. - Openness of upper management to meet with any level of staff. - Since it is a start-up, you can have the capacity to affect change, if you are willing to step up and take it. - Free snacks and coffee.

- The infrastructure still needs to mature. - Work load can be overwhelming at times (but mostly only for those that care). - Very long commute depending upon where you are in the valley.
