Pros

The compensation and RSUs are competitive — probably the one thing they get right. If money is your sole priority, you’ll be paid well. But make no mistake, it comes at a cost.

Cons

Work-life balance simply does not exist here. The culture is laser-focused on revenue and output, with little regard for the actual people doing the work. Burnout is not the exception — it’s the norm. Leadership is one of the biggest issues. Managers are promoted because they excelled as individual contributors, not because they have any real leadership ability. The result is a management layer that doesn’t know how to support, develop, or advocate for their teams. The environment is genuinely toxic. There’s a persistent undercurrent of stress and anxiety that affects your mental and physical health over time. I watched good people deteriorate — and eventually leave. If you value your wellbeing, keep looking. There are better places to grow your career without sacrificing your health.

Pros

The product security organization has a very ideal work-life balance. The culture is strong on ownership and trust. There is a good sense of pride and collaboration across teams with low level of politics and high sense of "the project is the boss". Compensation is good for the roles. Merit increases and promotions are mostly transparent, but can vary from manager to manager.

Cons

Leadership direction can be whiplash at some times. Some initiatives feel directionless, while others feel misguided. Leadership does respond to push back and listens to employees though, but it often feels like managing up.
