Pros

Will hire capable people with promise rather than require all the "ayes dotted and tees crossed." Room to develop career skills. Technically interesting work. Product line needed in today's marketplace. Great work from home, remote worker policies. Competent people don't need to spend more than forty per week to get the job done.

Cons

Structure way too distributed for a company of this size: teleconferences with participants in Tel-Aviv, Noida, Redwood City, Ottawa, Belcamp, and Camberly at the working staff level are common. Way too many products with many products behind the curve on features and performance. Management is not held accountable at any level. Serious disconnects between executive silos, for example sales and marketing.

Pros

Good pay and benefits. Great office culture, coworkers are friendly and are approachable. There are random team lunches and free bagel Friday. The company has annual sales kickoffs which are located at different parts of the world. The expenses are paid for by the company such as flight, and hotel. Definitely feel the stability of the company, SafeNet is a recognized leader of Software Licensing, revenue is constantly being attained at a high rate. Café located in downstairs lobby.

Cons

Really was thrown to the fishes in terms of learning the product. Training wasn’t all that great as I had to watch webinars as a primary source of product knowledge information. My boss who was the leader of Sales on the West Coast took a sabbatical randomly at the end of December. This in turn decreased the visibility of my performance of work to the new manager which was located at HQ in Maryland. This led to my position being eliminated on the West Coast. The office was kind of disorganized as the West Coast office only had no leadership, with 3 new sales people.
