Pros

Good technology and story Good customer base

Cons

Field sales not given enough time to develop local business - and are then fired!!! Disgraceful support. Lack of respect given to existing customers. Finding it very hard to retain existing customers - lots of time spent trying to get renewals. Poor marketing messaging - still no proper solution for BYOD devices - when competition is catching up very fast. Unreliable data centres - problems with GeoIP databases etc.

Pros

Zscaler’s bread and butter products are great. Excellent pay and benefits. Fast growing technology

Cons

Toxic Mid Level Management looking out for themselves. Employees are easily expendable. Company seems fixated on stock prices and losing its focus on making happy customers. Diabolical review practices. My whole team received reviews from our manager. The SVP of the group then lowered everyone’s rating down a full level without any feedback or reason. The same SVP then laid us all off a few months later.
