Pros

I get to work with really smart, engaged and innovative people on groundbreaking projects that have real impact for clients. I feel exceptionally lucky to be part of it all. I get to work from virtually anywhere on my schedule. I don't have to worry about limited vacation time. My management and my team look to me to do my very best, and trust me to deliver. The leadership of the company is unusally accessible, approachable and engaged--the CEO knew my name my first week.

Cons

Because the teams are really distributed--working from many different locations--you have to put in a bit more effort to schedule meetings and make sure communication is proactive. The pace of change and growth in cyber security really pushes people outside their comfort zones quite a bit (but I think this is where some of the best innovation happens).

Pros

Unlimited PTO Supportive Management Depending on who you get Good work life balance as long as you don't take the job with you after hours Work from Home Hands on Training - could still use improvement Annual pay increase

Cons

2 layoffs in a year when they keps saying everything was fine.... Laying off core contributors so now everyone who is left is doing the work of 2-3 people and not being compensated accordingly Only way to get a worth while pay increase is to move up in the company the annual increases are not inline with inflation or cost of living
