Drain the life from young talent until they quit from burnout - Anonymous Employee Guardsquare Employee Review

Guardsquare is a great company to work for. If you are lucky enough to work here you will work for the industry leader in mobile application security. The company isn't just great because of their top notch products, Guardsquare has a great culture and encourages collaboration no matter what level of your career you are in. I'm in Sales which gives me the opportunity to work with many other teams inside the company. Each team's passion for their work and commitment to take the company to the next level is contagious. This creates an environment where everyone is able to contribute to the success of the company. New ideas or new ways of thinking are not only welcomed, but they are encouraged and creates a dynamic atmosphere that is helping propel the company to new heights! Another thing that sets Guardsquare apart from any other companies I have worked for previously is it's dedication to maintaining a solid work / life balance. In an industry that often demands long hours and constant attention, Guardsquare has successfully created an environment where employees can excel in their roles without sacrificing their personal lives. To me this proves that Guardsquare understands motivated and happy employees are essential for longterm success. If you're driven to achieve success, this company is a perfect fit. There are opportunities for growth, and the supportive culture ensures employees are not looked at as a number but as integral contributors to the company's success moving forward. Finally, I have never worked for a company and had as much access to the CEO as I do at Guardsquare. He has an open door policy and welcomes new ideas.

No company is perfect, but in my experience when Guardsquare has hit a bump in the road, the company and specifically the executive leadership team has been quick to adapt and go in a different direction to achieve better results.

- Great Software - Emerging Market - Great support from Technical Team - Great teammates, support from sales engineers

- Terrible Management, specifically in the Boston Sales Team - Micromanagement from management - New sales team in the US office and does not quite understand how to sell the product, therefore tough to learn and grow - Turnover is at an all time high, have been over 7 AEs/AMs and SDRs leave due to management and lack of pipeline in the last year alone - They claim that they want to make the employee experience better, but fails to listen to advice or recomendations - no 401k matching - they change your work from home ability constantly, and rarely let you work from home if there is an emergency, or make you take PTO - They "lay off" multiple people at once and label it as performance so that they don't have to pay severance. Subsequently, they do not let people know that they are underperforming, or offer a PIP to allow them to improve
