Pros

1. The software Verodin has created is really needed in cyber security today, and the development staff really work hard to make it useful. Verodin really does have an exceptional product that its bringing to market, and it was exciting to be part of making that. 2. The company's solution has great growth potential so the investment options staff get might be worth a lot someday. 3. The non-executive staff, especially developers, really do put in long hours and want the company to succeed. 4. Overall compensation isn't too bad for a startup.

Cons

1. Nobody in the company has ever been promoted in its three-year history and annual turnover is at least 50%. Management always brings in buddies from past companies when a senior slot opens, and even some of them end up fired. 2. Verodin's customer support is complained about by customers frequently, so its likely a negative reputation will start circulating and impacting growth. 3. Anyone who raises a concern or who management doesn't like gets singled out as a troublemaker and then fired without notice. 4. Competitors are starting to beat Verodin on deals.

Pros

Incredibly driven company trying to change cybersecurity. Fun place to work if you want to love what you do.

Cons

Not the right environment for all. Folks focussed on supporting their customers and driving validation of cybersecurity effectiveness.

Pros

1) Relatively flat organization 2) Perks of a start up including a cool workspace (if you aren't remote), with a well stocked kitchen and company provided meals fairly often 3) It is a smaller organization so it is cool to be able to watch it grow/develop

Cons

Company culture is pretty bad insofar as people accepting responsibility for mistakes and trying to fix them. For such a small organization, there is a tremendous amount of finger pointing. At least one VP lacks the self-awareness, humility and managerial skills to lead. How that guy got hired continues to be a mystery to me.
